Hurt, Mississippi John - Ain't nobody's doggone business CD

• Country Blues singer/guitarist MISSISSIPPI JOHN HURT was known for his uniquely dextrous fingerpicking technique, his gentle, half-whispered vocals, and his soft-spoken songs inspired by Gospel and Folk music.
• The inclusion of traditional songs in his repertoire and lack of then-modern Blues influences on his style, establish Hurt as a firm link between the 19th and 20th centuries.
• Despite cutting a handful of memorable 78s for OKeh Records in 1928, Hurt remained largely forgotten until being rediscovered in the early 1960s, which led to him being eagerly embraced by a new generation of Blues aficionados and musicians.
• This compilation features the thirteen surviving sides he recorded for OKeh in 1928, augmented by eleven live tracks recorded in the early 60s, following his re-emergence.
• Included are his signature songs, ‘Frankie’, ‘Louis Collins’, ‘Nobody’s Dirty Business’, ‘Avalon Blues’, etc.
