The Essential Tampa Red - archive.org/details/TampaRed-T

Tampa Red is best known as an accomplished and influential blues guitarist who had a distinctive single-string slide style. His songwriting and his silky, polished bottleneck technique influenced other leading Chicago blues guitarists, such as Big Bill Broonzy, Robert Nighthawk and Muddy Waters, and many others, including Elmore James and Mose Allison.

The first track here features "Georgia Tom" (that is Tommy Dorsey) on piano.
