Esta es una coleccion para aquellos amantes del blues de campo, son grabaciones que Mr Mitchell realizó en la década del 60 a través del sur de los Estados Unidos.
Muchas de estas grabaciones han aparecido en distribuidoras especializadas como Southland, Rounder, Arhoolie, pero fué Fat Possum que adquirió los archivos y los edito en una variedad de formatos, en 45 vinilos de dos temas por cara e incluyendo el box set de 7 cd que aquí comparto.
George Mitchell no fue el único en seguir los pasos de Alan Lomax , buscando artistas en el Deep South y en el campo , David Evans, Sam Chartes son otros de los memorables buscadores de músicos originales que mantuvieran viva la llama original en los 60.La diferencia es que Mitchell se dedicó a grabar a todos los músicos ue se encontrara , no solo en Mississippi, como en Georgia y Tennesse y Alabama., Tambien grabó muchos de los conocidos Buddy Moss , Furry Lewis, Sleepy John Estes, y otras glorias del pasado, pero su mérito fue el de ser la primera persona que registró canciones de quienes posteriormente adquiririan mayor renombre, R.L Burnside, Jesse Mae Hemphill, Othar Turner y otros dignos morochos hijos de su buens madre que no volvieron a grabar mas musica y quedaron pues estos registros como único material de su trayecto. Rescato ésta como el mayor logro de este verdadero cazador de la tradición del blues en su país, legándonos material tan precioso como único.
