Satisfying Blues,
By Timothy G. Kenny (Libertyville, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Satisfying Blues (Audio CD)
Although John Hurt's music is classified as Delta Bules, it is definately the softer side of blues. Upbeat, folksy, easy listening for everyone. The bad news is, this CD is a live recording and the applause between songs is a little annoying. The good news is, Hurt is in top form, playing all of his greatest songs on modern recording equipment. The really good news is, the excellent bonus cuts that don't appear on most of his other recordings. If you can live with the applause, sit back and enjoy this man's truely amazing ability as a great acoustical guitarist.

This CD is worth its weight in gold,

I started listening to Mississippi John Hurt about six months ago, after getting interested in his music through some of the recordings of Doc and Merle Watson. I put this CD in and really couldn't take it out of my CD player for weeks. It is that good. It took me just a few days to realize how special a musician John Hurt really was. He balances a thumping alternating bass with smooth melody lines. His singing and unique voice is certainly part of his charm as well. He is described as much of a "songster" as a bluesman. Do yourself a favor and purchase this CD if you have an interest in John Hurt's music. I have purchased quite a few of his CDs after first listening to this one.
