• Track Listing

The guitar-playing right-hand man of Leroy Carr also recorded a lot under his own name, and that’s the focus here: 43 tracks that take us from Blackwell’s 1928–35 original prime on Vocalion, Gennett, Champion, Bluebird and Decca to 1960–61 LP cuts from his period of rediscovery during the folk-blues revival. This celebration of the great South Carolina bluesman’s musicianship and songwriting, too, includes "Kokomo Blues," "Trouble Blues Pts. 1 & 2," "Hard Time Blues," "Be-Da-Da-Bum," "Rambling Blues," "Wayback Blues," "Texas Stomp," "Non-Skid Tread," "Blues Before Sunrise," "Goin’ to Jail About Her," "Back Step Blues," "Little Boy Blue" and more!
