The Rough Guide to Gospel Blues: Reborn and Remastered

De invloed van de kerk zorgde ervoor dat gospel en blues lange tijd innig verweven waren. Van de echte evangelisten als Blind Willie Johnson en Reverend Gary Davis tot blueslegendes als Charley Patton en Skip James, deze opnames laten horen dat de scheiding tussen religieuze songs en muziek van de duivel flinterdun was. Zo wordt er gezegd dat Memphis Minnie (ook op deze cd) slechts n keer in de kerk geweest is en wel om een gospelgroep te horen, maar ze klinkt alsof ze zeer religieus is. Bessie Smiths klassieke bluessongs klinken eveneens als hymnen. Opnieuw een prima bluescollectie.
