Notes:
In her autobiography, Shirley Collins tells of her first meeting with Fred McDowell at the end of ahot September day in Tennessee in 1959. Towards dusk, a slight figure in dungarees and carryinga guitar appeared out of the trees and walked into the clearing...his name was Fred McDowell, hewas a fifty-year-old farmer and he d been picking cotton all day. . . . Fred started to play bottleneckguitar, a shimmering and metallic sound. His singing was quiet but strong and with a heartstoppingintensity. By the time he d finished his first blues, we knew we were in the presence of agreat and extraordinary musician. This was indeed an historic moment. By this time, thecommonly-held perception was that blues was dead. Collectorswere unaware that older members of the blackcommunity still clung to the music that had sustainedthem for so long.The depth of McDowell s repertoire. Not only did he performunique interpretations of long-established blues songs but he had original material of a comparablequality. When a handful of the recordings made that September night were issued a year later,the blues world was astonished at McDowell s modest mastery. His timely arrival would help fuel theemergence of a blues boom that would change the nature of popular music.Here s the astonishing sound that has haunted and inspired modern bluesmen in almost equal measure.
