Description
Experience a rare window into the heart of Texas blues history with this collection from Smithsonian Folkways. During the 1950s and 1960s, the blues served as the primary form of Black vernacular music across Texas and surrounding regions. In segregated neighborhoods, these powerful songs were shared in local saloons, dancehalls, and private homes, telling stories of heartbreak, joy, and triumph. This album features on-site recordings from the Mack McCormick collection, spanning the years 1958 to 1971. Robert "Mack" McCormick was a dedicated blues devotee who documented these musical traditions through photography and field recordings. By capturing the voices of Black and Latino Texans, McCormick preserved the authentic sounds of their communities. This collection offers an essential look at the musicians and the social environments that shaped the blues during a transformative era in American music.
