Mississippi son

"Musselwhite has been playing back-country blues guitar for years, but this is the first time he's done so throughout an album, accompanied only by his harmonica and sometimes stand-up bass and drums. His singing, always restrained, is so low-key that it risks losing the listener's attention, but the playing supplies the feeling, from Charley Patton's "Pea Vine Blues" to Guy Clark's "The Dark"".
