Guitarristas evangélicos, hermanas, reverendos, magos del 'bottleneck',
fingerpickers del campo y del suburbio, ex-reclusos de las peores penitenciarías sureñas, y algún que otro célebre bluesman más o menos dispuesto a limpiar su conciencia -al menos, el domingo por la mañana- tras la resaca de
moonshine. Una panorámica del Blues con textos de Gospel y Gospel con aire inconfundible de Blues. Grabaciones de 1927 a 2015.
