James Mathus ~ Jas. Mathus and His Knock-Down Society Play Songs for Rosetta (1997)



Gritty blues in the vein of Charlie Patton. Rosetta is Patton's daughter. The album is for her benefit.

After one listen, I can see why @axolotl really likes/loves this.

Rich, melodic, calm, centered and peaceful. Excellent guitar work that draws you in for the duration of the album. I rate it 4 stars.
