REVIEWS “Wearing a sawed-off bottleneck on his 3rd finger, Mississippi Fred McDowell created powerfully hypnotic blues and gospel. His style was a direct link to the 1930s blues of Charlie Patton and Son House. This 19-cut CD compiles his best known work... Fred's guitar style echoes in the music of Bonnie Raitt and the Rolling Stones, but his feel and field-holler voice were his and his alone.”(Jas Obrecht — Guitar Player) |

“One of the great exponents of the
Mississippi Delta slide guitar style, Fred McDowell was in every respect a blues poet of the very first rank. Each tune (is) a kind of short story with a form, character, and message of its own. This collection is a generous 60+ minutes of the best of McDowell's work. If you're looking for the definitive McDowell CD, this is it.”
