• Track Listing

It was Canned Heat’s Al Wilson who tracked down this Delta-blues giant, who was living in Rochester, NY and hadn’t performed in years (he’d felt left behind by the amplified age). That rediscovery came in 1960; this one, from ’65, was recently unearthed when these tapes were found. Listen, on CD or vinyl, as the legendary Son House talks about the blues and plays ’em: "Judgment Day," "New York Central," "A True Friend Is Hard to Find," "Preachin’ the Blues," "Change Your Mind" and more!
