| drews (London, Blighty) | Posted: Sep 06, 2010 - 06:02 Ideal blues to kick back to on the front porch of an old wooden house on a sweltering summer's evening, with the cicadas in full chorus, cold 'sierra nevadas' flowing and some good company...no not thinking of London, but reminiscing bout small town North Carolina   |
| dannyboy57 (Somerville, MA) | Posted: Jun 02, 2010 - 12:38 Who'd a' thunk a skinny ol' white Englishman could be so funky?  |
| Giselle62 (many bear, big rock, estuary California) | Posted: Jun 02, 2010 - 12:34 I love his voice his guitar of course—-i'm giving it a 9. |
| gumbo73039 (Devon, England) | Posted: Nov 25, 2009 - 06:04 Yay! Loving that, thanks! |
| rbigelo (Spanish Town) | Posted: Sep 23, 2009 - 06:47 ( ~ smiling ~ ) There are few things that cheer up a lower-Mississippi Delta Louisianian's spirit than some Mississippi John Hurt in the morning. Yours from the Irish Channel of New Orleans. |
| copymonkey (in the northeast, but not near anywhere cool) | Posted: Sep 23, 2009 - 06:47 Now I know where Keb' Mo got his style. |
| EssexTex (Pitching a tent) | Posted: Sep 23, 2009 - 06:46 And a fine performance in "The Elephant Man" too. |
| arsenault (long beach cali US and A) | Posted: Jan 21, 2009 - 09:06 read his bio on the wiki link.. rediscovered 3 years before his death. he sounds great... |
| macadavy (Cascadia's attic, eh?) | Posted: May 13, 2008 - 21:02 Love Mississippi John! This is one of his best. I think this album also has an incredible version of 'Nearer My God to Thee' in which MJH never actually mentions God - just sings: "Nearer my --- to thee" with a wonderful bluesy chord (D7, I think) filling the gap!  |
| lathyris (Houston, TX) | Posted: Sep 05, 2007 - 07:16 Whoever uploaded this should upload all the other 40+ songs on this CD! |
| nigelr (Coffs Harbour, Australia) | Posted: Aug 04, 2007 - 21:13 This is the real deal! |
| Tagish_girl (desperatley seeking hammock) | Posted: May 02, 2007 - 15:22 Wow, Doyle Dukes then MJH.... Send me south so I can relax on a front porch and get more of this! Will bring my own hammock...Thanks, Bill! |
| Alifreckles50 (Frederick, MD) | Posted: May 02, 2007 - 15:10 just wonderful. I have his recording of a song called "Frankie" on a blues collection. easy voice to listen to. |
| geotrash (Denver, CO) | Posted: Apr 01, 2007 - 00:24 Outstanding! |
| FlatCat (Chicago) | Posted: Feb 28, 2007 - 19:17 Sweet. In every sense of the word. I used to listen to these to learn how to finger pick the guitar. His playing is so clear and crisp, it's not so hard to pick up the notes from the record. |
| Mari (île de lesvos) | Posted: Feb 28, 2007 - 19:17  Woo! |
| electronicshaman (miskatonic) | Posted: Feb 28, 2007 - 19:15 I'm gonna throw in a request for Shortnin' Bread I just love MJH's little dittys |
| fatcatjb (Sunny Sacramento) | Posted: Feb 28, 2007 - 19:15 every one of my sixth graders would be up and dancing to this tune! |
