second half of the twentieth century. Best-known for capturing the sound of acoustic blues, originating from the Mississippi Delta and filtered through Chicago’s South Side, going electric and for releasing some of the earliest rock n’ roll singles, Chess also has a deep catalog of jazz, R&B and soul recordings.
