About This Item

Perhaps the greatest exponent of country blues finger style guitar, Mississippi John Hurt stands as one of the most important blues musicians of the 20th century, with a career that began in the 1920’s and by the 1940’s was nearly forgotten until he was rediscovered in 1963 with his amazing music prowess still intact. He inspired a new generation of folk musicians and his importance cannot be overstated. Presented here are recordings from around the period of his rediscovery in the mid 1960’s, a few short years before his death, and contains renditions of tunes that are most identified with this iconoclastic guitar genius - including “Candy Man,” “Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor,” “My Creole Belle,” “Casey Jones” and more. All selections have been newly re-mastered. Album Tracks 1. Lonesome Blues 2. Salty Dog 3. Nobody's Business But Mine 4. The Angels Laid Him Away 5. Casey Jones (Talkin' Casey) 6. Baby, What's Wrong with You? 7. Candy Man 8. My Creole Belle 9. Make Me a Pallet on Your Floor 10. Shake That Thing 11. I'm Satisfied
