Description

Despite the fact that many bluesmen started leaving the Magnolia State within the early twentieth century to pursue fortune and fame up north, many others stayed home. These musicians remained rooted to the traditions of their land, which came to define a distinctive playing style unique to Mississippi. They did not simply play the blues, they lived it. Go back and forth through the hallowed juke joints and cotton fields with writer Roger Stolle as he recounts the history of Mississippi blues and the musicians who have kept it alive. A few of these bluesmen remain to carry in this proud legacy, even as others have passed on, but Hidden History of Mississippi Blues ensures none can be forgotten.
