Everytime I put on a Mississippi Fred McDowell album, I cant help but get this big goofy grin on my face, and go dancin' round the room.
This 2 cd collection was recorded a few years before his passing, but his electric slide guitar playing is still a marvel.
Simple bass & drums back him unobtrusively. The sound quality is first rate.
So, Im scouring the net looking for his other 1960s releases.(He switched from acoustic to electric in the 60s).
Mississippi Fred McDowell is an important figure in the blues world.
Appreciate him soon.
