Description by OLDIES.com:

Two of the greatest legends of all time on one CD, performing the best examples of country blues. Leadbelly set standards for playing before the blues era even began. Blind Willie McTell was one of the finest guitarists and singers in the history of down South blues. From the archives of Biograph Records.

Entertainment Reviews:

JazzTimes - 3/97, p.78
"...Huddie Ledbetter belts with gospel-holler intensity on eight tracks recorded in 1935...while Blind Willie demonstrates a more mellifluous vocal style along with an astounding command of the guitar..."
