I hadn't heard of this guy until last week - but I've been really enjoying his one & only album (recorded 1967, released 2017) and I wondered if anyone else had come across him? Apparently he was a friend of Charley Patton.

That's one hell of a long release date!

That's one hell of a long release date! According to Stefan Wirz's site one track turned up on a 1998 compilation. I'm sure there's still reams of stuff out there in the collections of the rediscovery guys who went out into the field during that era - more of it seems to be coming out now that it's possible to digitize and restore the audio from the original tapes.

I bought this CD when it came out, John Miller was involved its fruition. It really is an important release, as well as being a great album.
