Opis

This is the first biography of one of the most influential musicians of the 1960s revival. When Mississippi John Hurt (1892-1966) was 'rediscovered' by blues revivalists in 1963, his musicianship and recordings transformed popular notions of pre-war country blues. At 71 he moved to Washington and became a live-wire connection to a powerful, authentic past. His intricate and lively style made him the most sought-after musician among the many talents the revival brought to light. "Mississippi John Hurt" is the first full-length exploration of this legendary creator's life and times, from the moment his parents were freed from slavery, through the destiny-making moment when his mother purchased his first guitar for $1.50, to his 'rediscovery' during the Blues revival of the 1960s. This volume also details Hurt's musical influences and the origins of his style and repertoire, as well as featuring - for the first time - some of the last ever photographs of this legendary musician.
