i bought this cd to get a copy of one track i heard someone - almost certainly john peel - play from an import lp in 1968: "cypress grove blues". all i knew about it (because i didn't realise I'd want the information until after he'd started playing the track) was that it was "delta blues" - which didn't mean anything to record shop staff in north london, newark-on-trent, kendal, durham, or newcastle. (it probably didn't inspire confidence either, that i said i thought the track was called "cypress tree blues", and it was really old...)

- just by chance, i happened to spot this skip james cd - at a reasonable price - and knew i had naught by this classic bluesman - and there it was, not just the title, but in the track-listing on the back of the digipak!

- and the rest of the tracks on this album are pretty fine, too... classic delta blues from one of the original great bluesmen as lived into the recording era.
