Since I've Laid My Burdens Down Mississippi John Hurt


Since I've Laid My Burdens Down
Mississippi John Hurt

Pictures are from the Library of Congress, American Memory Project and are of various people and places in Mississippi. The dates range from 1935 - 1945.

Mississippi John Hurt had two albums of very limited success in 1928. He was later "rediscovered" in the sixties and put out or took part in a number of albums and small concerts. I think he is the sound of grace and could listen to his sing and play all day.
