This is an amazing new Delmark proposal The cd gathers sixteen Sleepy Jon Estes’ musical jewels belonging to the most productive period of his musical career, when he had been rediscovered for white audiences who passionately loved the new folk-blues they have heard in such jazz festivals like Newport In those recordings Sleepy John Estes played with two other legendary names like singer and harmonica Hammie Nixon and guitar, mandoline and singer Yank Rachell The three artists sound great and really inspired on all these recordings that were done in 1969 Estes gives a passionate powerful singing together with a warm sincere performing Hammie and Yank also show their vocal abilities in four songs A splendid reissue that will delight the most purist blues fans but also everyone who has a slight good taste to appreciate the most genuine and real blues So this cd already belongs to blues history
