Filed Under News | Leave a Comment
Featuring over 75 minutes and 23 tracks, Rediscovered compiles tracks off Hurt’s four Vanguard releases — Today!, The Immortal Mississippi John Hurt, Last Sessions, and The Best of Mississippi John Hurt. The tracks selected are truly first-rate and give a fine cross-section of Hurt’s gently rolling country-blues, including many of his better-known tracks such as “It Ain’t Nobody’s Business” and “Avalon, My Home Town,” as well as a few spirituals and a handful of live tracks. These recordings are some of the last Hurt would make before his death, and are fine evidence of just how good he still was up until his last days.~ by Matt Fink, All Music Guide
“Humble Greatness”
UncleWalt from MS
In the “shotgun” house where he lived most of his life in Avalon, Mississippi (near Carrollton [ofCarrollCountyPictureShowfame,- wholenutherstory]) is a modest museum dedicated to the life and music of Mississippi John Hurt. See the house to really understand the greatness of his music, and the gentleness and genius of the man. He makes it sound so simple. But YOU try it! Easier to listen to it. Over and over and over!
