SON HOUSE
Raw Delta Blues: The Very Best Of The Delta Blues Master
2014 UK pressing
After rolling out some Son House yesterday, I realized I quite hadn’t had enough.
This is an excellent compilation; ALL his best shit is on it; John The Revelator, Death Letter Blues, Pearline…
We used to get shitfaced waaaaay back in the day while camping in New Hampshire, & play Death Letter Blues around the campfire. Dual acoustics in front of the fires of hell.

SON HOUSE
The Real Delta Blues (14 Songs From The Man Who Taught Robert Johnson)
1975 U.S. pressing
I’m about to crack open a fresh bottle of Maker’s, so I figured this was an appropriate choice for my last spin of the night.
There’s something about these old #blues men. Just a guitar, their voice, and PAIN.
Sometimes, it’s all you need.
I’ve been trying to do a full band version of “Motherless Children Have A Hard Time” for years.
Cuz you know… PAIN.
