Son House
The Father of the Delta Blues (1902-1988) is back on this new release from Easy Eye Sound which premieres eight tracks from manager Dick Waterman's personal archive of quarter-inch tapes recorded by House in the 1960s as the bluesman was rediscovered by a new generation of fans on the folk circuit. Forever On My Mind represents the earliest full-length House solo performance recorded after his rediscovery, at an appearance on November 23, 1964 at Wabash College, a small men's school in Crawfordsville, Indiana. Producer Dan Auerbach has overseen the restoration and mastering of these powerful performances. Available on CD, standard black vinyl, Easy Eye Sound-exclusive orange marble vinyl, and digital/streaming.
