...Muddy Waters- Folk Singer...
This is an album that I've been listening to pretty consistently for the past month or so. Apparently, in 1964, in order to cater to the folk crowd, Muddy was asked to lay down his electric guitar and play some stripped-down delta blues. The result was this album. What really blows my mind is its recording quality. It's amazing to me how much raw emotion can be conducted through such restrained songs -especially on the first few tracks. Give the first cut on the album a try below. This was put out on Chess Records and featured Willie Dixon on bass, Buddy Guy on acoustic guitar, and Clifton James on Drums.

...A Mix of BlackForrestry: Spring 2012...
Here's a mix that I've been planning to post for quite some time, but until now, haven't had a chance to. This group of songs reflects a few of the artists that I had in pretty heavy rotation back in the fall. Even though it's spring now, I think that the songs still work. I put this mix together 5 or 6 months ago to share these artists with my wife and children. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have. Mediafire link in the comments.
