Mr. Scrapper’s Blues:

Description

An overlooked blues master, Scrapper Blackwell was a contemporary of Robert Johnson and other early delta blues artists. A truly remarkable guitarist, Blackwell’s fluid acoustic single-note picking, in the Chicago blues and Piedmont blues styles, inspired a long line of musicians. This essential release presents Blackwell’s complete album, ‘Mr. Scrapper’s Blues’, recorded during his early-’60s comeback.
