Album Notes & Community Reviews
Bridging the gap between raw country blues and the refined folk stylings favored by Northern urban audiences, this collection features exceptional, highly polished acoustic guitar work. The artist's smooth, articulate vocal delivery made rural African-American musical traditions accessible to a broader, intellectual demographic. The album was instrumental in establishing his reputation as a premier ambassador of the folk-blues revival.
