Presented before a "live" audience is Mance Lipscomb, Texas songster, blues guitarist, share-cropper, gentleman, and carrier of a remarkably rich rural African American heritage. Here is his amazingly wide repertoire: ranging from powerful topical protest ballads like "Tom Moore" to spirituals, children's songs, old pop songs, blues, boogies and stories.
Recorded in 1964 & 1972.

REVIEW

“I acknowledge that this must make it seem like Lipscomb is little more than a human jukebox, but you need to hear it to see the way it all comes up sounding just like all his own work - the mark of a true artist. The common factor - as well as a fine, rich singing voice - is his quite brilliant guitar plauing, a country fingerstyle that combined dexterity with a great sense of swing.... An excellent showcase of the work of one of the great blues songsters.”

(Ray Templeton — Blues & Rhythm)
