Description: | Recorded in April 1959, Tupelo Blues
was Hooker??s first LP packaged for the
folk/traditional blues market, where the
blues legend played nothing but the
acoustic guitar, and sang straight to
the bone with his soul drenched vocal
delivery. The album was a key change
from his earlier recordings, most of which
had featured Hooker on an electric guitar
with his trademark reverb and stomping
foot. This is an intimate session featuring
standards such as ??How Long Blues?,
??Bottle Up and Go?, and his first recorded
take of ??Tupelo Blues?, one of his all-
time classics. - 180GR.180-Gram Virgin Vinyl Limited Edition - *Down Beat - *(*)AllMusic.
