 | Description: | 3-CD digi-book expanded & remastered edition of Texas blues legendâ??s only album for
International Artists / 2-CDâ??s full of previously unheard and unreleased songs, studio
talkback plus candid conversations with Lightninâ?? Hopkins
Recorded in January 1968, the original album stands out in Lightninâ?? Hopkinsâ?? discography
due to unusual line-up on the sessions. The veteran bluesman, fuelled by homemade
moonshine, was joined by a young hippy rhythm section comprising Danny Thomas and
Duke Davis from The 13th Floor Elevators, themselves high on acid at the time. This however,
is no failed hippy/blues amalgam but a straightforward, honest blues album with the great
man backed by fans, who happened to be members of a popular psychedelic band. Its
significance lies in how the music cut across the generational and racial boundaries within
the segregated and repressive atmosphere of late 1960s Texas.
Alongside recording the album for International Artists, producer Lelan Rogers also set out
to generate THE definitive interview with the great bluesman and so left the tapes running in
the studio as the album was cut. These recordings have lain hidden in a series of dump
tapes for 44 years but have now been put together as a unique documentation of one of the
20th centuryâ??s most revered bluesmen. We now have a coherent combination of songs,
studio chatter and candid conversations with Lightninâ?? Hopkins about his life and times. On
the two additional discs, the songs are as the band played them in the studio, live and raw,
with the conversations captured as they were.
All this material is previously unheard and unreleased except for the final versions of the
songs and a brief excerpt of conversation included on the 1980 International Artists
compilation â??Epitaph For A Legendâ??. This definitive expanded edition of â??Free Form Patternsâ??
offers a fascinating and unique insight into Lightninâ?? Hopkins the man and the musician. - .. PATTERNS |  | Manufacturer No.: |
