Publisher: Verve Folkways

Publication Year: 1967

Catalog Number: FT-3010 / FTS-3010

Format: 12 inch, 33rpm

Track A3 from a collection of songs recorded live at the Cafe Au Go Go in Greenwich Village, New York City, on November 24-27, 1966. Produced in response to the “Blues Revival” of the 1950s and 60s, this album features live recordings of some of the best “re-discovered” Delta bluesmen. The raw stripped-down nature of these recordings typifies the beauty of the Country Blues style, as opposed to the electrified ensemble sound of the Chicago Blues style.
