Super post-war blues from Texas
This CD collects 23 rare post-war blues recordings from the Texas area. Most of the artists here made very few recordings - in some cases only one or two - and they are included here. That doesn't mean they were bad records; in fact, some of these sides are excellent.

Great Bourbon Sippin' Music
This is a marvelous compilation of authentic, front-porch Americana. I live in North Carolina and hear my share of Bluegrass. If you're a fan of groups such as the Red Clay Ramblers, as I am, this will show you what their predecessors sounded like. True roots music. The recording is great, as well. Nary a hiss or pop, which is quite remarkable for recordings of this era. The engineers obviously embarked on a labor of love. Kudos to Sony for this collection.

a brutal joy
These songs were sung by men who wandered after will-o'-the-wisp, Great Record No One Knows About
One of the best examples of the cross- pollenation between rural blues and country music.Shows how what we think of as mutually exclusive black and white forms share common roots and influences.Alot of fun to listen to. There are some "antiquated" racial attitudes in some of the songsas well as references to morphine and cocaine addiction if I remembercorrectly, but it's classic music. ... Read more

Excellent Modern Acoustic Blues!
This album contains some of the absolute best modern acoustic blues out there! This diverse collection is excellent for both the uninitiated and the hardcore acoustic blues fans. Personally, my favorite track is Paul Geremia's "Broke Down Engine;" it's got the most amazing 12-string slidework I've ever heard! There are plenty of amazing tracks here; at the price they're selling this collection, don't even think twice before buying it! ... Read more
