Q (8/94, p.127) - 3 Stars - Good - "...a musician in the full flower of his creativity, proud of the breadth of his repertoire, aware of how to tell a story or break a heart..."

Title Note

Includes liner notes by Dr. Kip Lornell.

Digitally remastered by Roger Siebel (SAE).

This is the fifth volume in the series of Leadbelly's Library of Congress recordings. The songs on this disc were recorded from 1939 to 1943.

The title of this set is one of the defining phrases to emerge from the blues in general and Leadbelly in particular. Even people who don't know the traditional song that bears its name know the line. Leadbelly's music has become a part of American culture and his sound has had an enormous influence on the folk and blues artists who have came after him. These 19 songs offer a dazzling display of the power and range of his voice. In addition to straightforward and deep blues, there are also some topical numbers on this set, including "The Hindenburg Disaster." Accompanied by his 12-string guitar, Leadbelly is a model of confidence and ease. These simple and straightforward documents, preserved by the Library of Congress, were recorded primarily by musicologist Alan Lomax.
