GRAMMY-award winning blues icon Koko Taylor was a force of nature. The legendary Queen of the Blues was one of the genres best-selling and most recognizable artists. With her huge, gritty voice and the backing of her powerhouse band, The Blues Machine, she delivered tough Chicago blues over a 45-year career, ending with her death in 2009. For people all over the world, her music IS the blues as much as BB Kings or Buddy Guys.

“Crown Jewels” is the first new Koko Taylor vinyl to be released in 35 years, and as the title makes clear, its packed with over 50 minutes of the finest performances from her celebrated Alligator years. These are songs blues fans know and love by heart, from Wang Dang Doodle to Hey Bartender to Let The Good Times Roll. Its gritty, unvarnished, old-school blues and proud of it, every track infused with Kokos ageless energy and passion. Fellow Chicago blues greats Buddy Guy and Carey Ball guest.
