Lightnin' Hopkins - The Singles Collection Vol. 1 1946-53 - This substantial collection covering the early years of his recording career helps to explain and underline that view / Sam InchLightnin'Inch Hopkins was one of the true blues greats, a singer, guitarist, songwriter and occasional pianist from Texas, who through a life as a long-time solo performer developed a highly distinctive style, playing rhythm, lead, bass and percussion, with a legendarily unstructured approach to the 12-bar . Musicologist Mark McCormick said that Hopkins is Inchthe embodiment of the jazz-and-poetry spirit, representing it's ancient form in the single creator whose words and music are one actInch. Born in 1912, he did not get an opportunity to record until the post-war years, and then recorded prolifically for a variety of labels. Acrobat has addressed his output on 78s and 45s from 1946 to 1962 with two 3-CD sets of which this is the first. This 78-track collection comprises the A & B sides of just about all his releases during these years on the Aladdin, Modern, Gold Star and RPM labels. His RPM releases overlapped with his releases on the Sittin' In With tag which begin in 1951 and start Vol. 2. It includes his hits in the US R&B charts with InchShotgun BluesInch, InchT Model BluesInch and InchTim Moore's FarmInch. It also includes records for Aladdin with pianist Wilson InchThunderInch Smith. His New York Times obituary in 1982 said he was Inchone of the great country blues singers and perhaps the greatest single influence on rock guitar playersInch, and this substantial collection covering the early years of his recording career helps to explain and underline that view.
