Mississippi Heavy Water Blues

Description

A dozen of Memphis’s best blues numbers covering the stretch from Victor’s earliest Southern recordings to the early forties, with a couple of Andy and Larkin’s original instrumentals thrown in for good measure. The title cut refers to Barbecue Bob’s song about the 1927 flood. (Riverlark Music)
