Between 1934 and 1942, Leadbelly made numerous trips to the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. to record his music. This is the second of six volumes collecting the powerful music recorded in those sessions, simply and directly. Leadbelly possessed a powerful voice and the creative fervor to fashion his observations and heartfelt passions into riveting songs. The shadow he cast over the rest of the 20th century is enormous--whether conscious of his influence or not, nearly all folk and blues singers can trace their musical lineage back to him. Additionally, he wrote songs that have become part of our cultural heritage, like "C.C. Rider" and "The Bourgeois Blues," both of which are included here. Some of the lesser-known compositions featured here prove to be incredible demonstrations of his talents, like the acappella-tinged "Old Rattler."
Library of Congress recordings from the late '30s.
Includes liner notes by Kip Lornell.

| | Memphis Slim Come Back CD (2002)

$14.69
Like John Lee Hooker, Memphis Slim was very much a label-hopper -- from the '40s to the '80s, it was safe to assume that the singer/pianist wouldn't stay at one label for too long. In the '50s, Slim did some of his best work for United, a Chicago-based indie whose catalog has since been acquired by Delmark (another Windy City label). Slim's United period of 1952-1954 is the focus of The Come Back, a 20-track ...

| | Eric Andersen So Much On My Mind: The Anthology 1969-1980 CD (2007) (Import) Reissue; Australia
Gwine Dig A Hole To Put The Devil In: Library Of Congress Vol. 2. album
$19.99
A fixture of the early-'60s folk revival, Eric Andersen's literate and romantic songs really dealt more with the delicate inner world of relationships than they did with any political issue of the day, and his range of focus hasn't really shifted much in his forty-plus year career. He was, in effect, an archetype for the introspective singer/songwriters who emerged in the '70s, and the deeply personal songs he spun out of his romantic relationships are models of aching sincerity. This set from Raven Records collects tracks recorded between 1969 and 1980, a span during which Andersen expanded his acoustic folk style to include trappings of country, pop and jazz, all without losing the literate romanticism of his early-'60s Vanguard Records material (Andersen revisits that period here with live versions of "Violets of Dawn," "Thirsty Boots" and a remake of "Close the Door Lightly"). Andersen isn't a rocker, by any means, and his songs run to the wistful and dreamy side of things, requiring close attention lest they blur into one another, but cuts like "Secrets" and "Time ...
