5.0 out of 5 stars
Sit Back, Relax, and Enjoy,
By Allan Ostermann "allan" (Portland (the one on the left)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
Yes, this is a live recording, not a collection of prerecorded material; but you know what? I think it's even better than the studio works. I own Avalon Blues and Worried Blues, and they're wonderful. But there's something different going on here. There's a certain undefinable spirit he adds to the songs. Gosh, I don't want to say it, but it's almost rowdy, if Mr. Hurt could ever be described in that fashion (heck, though, it's almost like calling Perry Como speed metal).All I'm trying to say is that the artist/audience chemistry seems to add something exciting to the music and the musician. I guess he seems happier and more alive; which leads me to one oxymoron I've always used to describe Mississippi John Hurt. Happy blues. I love this album, and if you like anything this man has recorded, I'd almost guarantee you'll feel the same.

This disc is a fine place to dive into the wonderfully gentle blues of this wonderfully gentle man. There was nothing flashy about John Hurt, and maybe for that reason his music may stick to your ribs for a long, long time.

My favourite album,
By dmckenzi@eidnet.org (Brooks, Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
I first heard this album in the mid-sixties. I bought the LP as soon as I could locate it, and updated to the CD as well. I have hundreds of recordings but this is the one I like the best. I've listened to it for more than 30 years.
