Description by OLDIES.com:
Mississippi John Hurt's career didn't really kick in until he was seventy-one years old and was "rediscovered" by
young Blues musicians. His exquisite Country-Blues singing and clean finger-picking guitar playing style were ideally suited for his tales of manual labor and spirituality.

RE: amazing picking!
Music Lover: LX Skye from Southern Utah -- March, 24, 2007
These recordings were made in the mid-60's, when Hurt was almost 70.
And its a marvel to hear his style of finger picking!
The only qualms I have about this recording, is that it seems to be a live recording from the same source, but each song fades out, which is a bit annoying.
Its also from an acetate source, so youve got a pop and a crackle here and there during songs.
But the high artistry of this gentleman of the blues, makes this recording one to acquire.
