In the ’60s, Mississippi John became one of the toasts of the folk revival—but these are his original 1928 Okeh recordings that capture the intimate singing and intricate finger-picking that would make him a late-in-life celebrity. This, friends, is the blues: "Nobody’s Dirty Business," "Ain’t No Tellin’," "Frankie," "Stack O’Lee Blues," "Candy Man Blues," "Big Leg Blues" and more! Rockbeat.
