" ... this timely re-release by Jasmine refocuses on the most significant recorded output of an artist whose career started as a Mississippi preacher. His fervor and passioned delivery from the pulpit clearly carried over into his unique style that influenced a host of others who emulated his driving vocal and guitar strumming pattern - creating a sound that captured the essence of the blues from the Deep South ... Bob McGrath's packaging of the collection is, as usual, first-rate, as well as Bob Fisher's excellent liner notes paired with Neil Slaven's discographical expertise".
