Charley Patton - Jesue Is a Dying-Bed Maker(1930)
Whenever people discuss the "best" or "favorite" Charley Patton tracks, my personal favorites are rarely ever included, nor can they be heard on youtube, don't really know why ;-)
Here they are anyways, enjoy !!
Charley Patton was "the" delta blues man of course, his playing was raw and expressive, a distinctive style, rather dissident to the other blues players of the time. A monument !
The images in the video relate to Patton's life: - The Dockery farm was the sawmill and cotton plantation where Charley and his family lived from 1900 onwards. - "The masked Marvel" was the Paramount promotion campaign for his second (or third ??) release, crediting the first 10.000 copies to "the masked marvel" instead of Charley Patton.
- The last image is that of Rosetta, Charley Patton's daughter (one of ??) (last living and known anyways)
