a very rare glimpse into black life in america in the first half of the 20th century. as remembered and told by three of the greatest bluesmen that ever lived. memphis slim, big bill broonzy and john lee "sonny boy" williamson #1. with short musical breaks.it's ok for airplay. BUT this is a true account of what really happened.very powerful stuff .but it's the truth.it might set you free,if you listen to it.
