This compact disc reissue gathers up all the original tracks from Jessie Mae's 1980 debut album for the French Vogue label along with four remixed bonus tracks, all seeing their first domestic release. Recorded by folklorist Dr. David Evans (who also contributes second guitar on 13 of the 15 tracks here) in various locales around Memphis and Mississippi, the music stays down-home and primal throughout. There's a strong sense of rhythm that permeates this record, whether it comes from the fife and drum-derived percussion work of Calvin Jackson and Joe Hicks or simply Jessie Mae's own foot-operated tambourine driving the beat home. Highlights include "Jessie's Boogie" and "Standing In My Doorway Crying" (both sides of her first 45 single, underwritten by the National Endowment for the Arts), "Honey Bee," "Boogie Side of the Road," "Crawdad Hole," "Lovin' In the Moonlight," "Married Man Blues" and the title track. The blues, real and raw. ~ Cub Koda

Musician (5/98, p.91) - "...this funky rave-up collects the first recordings of the Como, Mississippi native, who's a stirring singer and gracefully idiosyncratic guitarist.

HUNGRY GHOSTS is a snapshot of work in progress, ca. August 2008. It's a work in progress because it's always a work in progress- every time I perform, there's a different vibe, a different energy- I react to the environment we live in: the mood of the day, the climate, and general well-being of the world... I asked my friend Phil Haynes to join me on a black box stage at Bucknell University where Heath helped me set up my gear to record some music that I'd been performing for the past year or so. Phil came loaded with "instruments"- ...

Quote from Kimball J. Meyer a.k.a. Kim Berly, Drummer and Singer with The Stampeders, Recipient for SOCAN classic awards 'Oh My Lady' and 'Minstrel Gypsy'--' Penny Buhr Johnson sings from the heart. She sings and engages the listener , in an easy down to earth fashion, telling the story of her songs, and the story of her life. The voice is open and relaxed, capable of soaring up and up and up with no hint of strain. Her songs are lyrically honest and melodically memorable and stand up well!She's the real thing. A lifetime of not being a performer has allowed her to be who she is. She's an absolutely competent pianist, but its the voice you'll come to hear. Soulful and sweet, clear and controlled, it is the perfect medium for her message. Her songs are touched by spirit, and the joy she takes in them, makes it all irresistible.'--...so, you're sitting right next to her on the piano bench as she sings and plays to you! 2008 CGMA Award Winner of Canadian New Female ...
