Synopsis

Album Description
R.L. Burnside is one of the most recognized bluesmen in the world. For years he has mesmerized audiences with his unique North Mississippi hill country blues style and has influenced a new generation of blues musicians. Memphis-based Inside Sounds has had a history of working with blues scholar David Evans, who recognized Burnside's extraordinary talent while he was still working in the cotton fields in North Mississippi. The seventeen tracks on "Raw Electric 1979-1980" have never been released before. Most of the recordings were made at Burnside's home near Independence, Mississippi, with a live audience participating. Although he is now known for a more refined studio sound, this CD depicts Burnside and his family band, The Sound Machine, approaching their music with a raw energy more akin to live performance. Song by song descriptions and rare photographs are included in the sixteen-page booklet.
