The Legendary 1963 Piedmont sides of Mississippi John Hurt, his first since his
influential 1928 recordings for the Okeh label. "Folk Songs And Blues" was recorded
immediately after Hurt's "rediscovery" on March 24, 26, 29 and April 2, 1963 and
released later that year. This album features many of his best known songs including
"Candy Man Blues", "Salty Dog", "Spike Driver Blues", "Louis Collins", "Spanish
Fandango" and "Avalon Blues." Mississippi John accompanies his gentle, mellow singing
with acoustic guitar and, on one tune, harmonica.

The Legendary 1963 Piedmont sides of Mississippi John Hurt, his first since his
influential 1928 recordings for the Okeh label. A companion record to "Folk Songs
And Blues, "Worried Blues" was recorded live at a coffee house in Washington, D.C.
in March of 1964. It was released a few months later that year. The wide-ranging
repertoire, both originals and traditional tunes, are highlighted by "Cow Hooking
Blues No. 2", "Farther Along" and "Oh Mary, Don't You Weep." Accompanied only by
his guitar, Hurt is an engaging performer who cuts to the bone with his unique,
peaceful singing and playing.
