I'm sorry, blues fans, but I accidentally clicked on the thumb down, so please disregard it. I LOVE Blind Blake.

Man-0-man!! Thanks for posting these; Blind Blake is one of the best. Fantastic!

@flounderize yes it does sound like "sweet home chicago"

[eddison72]

A real "Guitar Hero"!

[flounderize]

Generic as blues is... but is it just me, or the intro humming part could not be more similar to Sweet Home Chicago

@theoriginalbadbob

5 other people did too, and that was over a year time span

@hoggzski there is still blues in what they do though cause folk and celtic music on its own sounds nothing like they do blues is what invented the solo and the rock riff so therefore all rock stars must pay respect to these guys for laying the foundation down.

@Rudimentarypenis I want to know just one thing:

Did Blind Blake sign that photo himself?

[Rudimentarypenis]

@theoriginalbadbob Don't worry, so did five other people, they just weren't as humble about it.

@UpTheDownEscalator00 Well, i guess you are talking about famous young guitarrists nowadays cause im 19 and if u see me using the guitar you will see my wide influences and the styles i use and dynamics u will say that the world is bigger that it seems, but i dont have a good camera to record them. By the way play from blues, folk or rock and roll till some spanish and latin rythms.

This guy is better than 99% of guitarists today. Plain and simple, no questions about it.

too much echo in the remaster
