Father of the Delta Blues: Selections from Paramount Recordings

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Charley Patton is undisputably one of the most influential figures in the history of the blues, and among the most important American musicians of the 20th century. His recordings in the 1920s helped lay the foundation for the Delta blues style, and continue to inspire musicians an entire century later. This compilation of recordings from the historic Paramount catalog showcase Patton's skills as a powerful and expressive vocalist, skilled guitarist, and dynamic performer. The collection has been remastered by Dave Gardner, and was pressed at Furnace Record Pressing.
