The mystique of pre-war blues. A record of the soul that resides in a unique guitar style.
A valuable album that includes all of the recordings of this enigmatic country bluesman, recorded in the late 1920s.
His unique picking style, which evokes the influence of Spanish music, and his plain, conversational vocals, have a mysterious sound that has not faded even after 100 years, and offer a glimpse into the "abyss" that lies at the roots of American music.
