"The complete Library of Congress recordings of blind Willie McTell,-songwriter,guitar wizard, more than an adequate singer,a blues legend. These songs are formatted with commentary from Willie McTell and John A.Lomax. Willie explains the heritage of the blues,he displays his versatility and does so like nobody else,pickin' out ragtime,jazz,gospel,the delta blues. An important piece of history,Recorded in 1940,from an artist-musician like no other,listen to Willie McTell and his twelve string guitar and you'll be amazed. There is another Willie McTell library of congress,"the same" recording out there,"import",it's probably out of print,the audio is most likely better on this one,Fuel2000."
