Delta Bluesman

This is a wonderful record. The first 14 cuts are from 1942 Library of Congress recordings. Edwards' playing is as Delta blues as it gets. Edwards worked with (Big Joe Williams and) other Delta greats such as Tommy McClennan, Charley Patton. Big Walter Horton, Robert Johnson, and Little Walter. His playing shows influences from all these men. There are seven songs on the CD recorded in 1991 with Carey Bell, Sunnyland Slim, Aron Burton, and Robert Plunkett, that show Edwards can still lay down some mean blues.
