Review by denisoliver Sep 27, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)

This release is something very special as it contains for the first time two tracks by Son House, which have been lost since 1930 and rediscovered in September 2005. Its rediscovery has been one of the most sensational events in the blues-scene for decades.
