Lightnin' Hopkins' Blues Origins
Lightnin' and the Blues capture the essence of Texas blues.
Hopkins's simple yet deeply emotional blues guitar playing evokes the atmosphere of the American South. While his performance style is entirely self-contained, his vocals and playing are richly expressive. This recording is highly regarded as an important embodiment of the essence of blues.
