M.T. Blues groups together some of the finest blues based cuts from the Marshall Tucker Band's old Capricorn catalog, including eight songs written by founding Tucker guitarist Toy Caldwell. Oftentimes in a compilation situation, the listener is subjected to a random group of songs that have been slammed together for the sole purpose of turning an extra dollar. Not so with M.T. Blues. Even the avid MTB collector will appreciate the arrangement of the selections, and the bluesy flow. There is even a new cut from the current MTB, the rollicking &I Like Good Music.&
