Big Joe Williams | Piney Woods Blues | Album

Big Joe Williams’ Piney Woods Blues is widely considered a masterpiece of country and Delta blues, serving as the definitive album that introduced his raw, idiosyncratic genius to the folk-revival audience of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Recorded in 1958 and released by Delmark Records (then Delmar), this landmark LP captures a legendary musician at the peak of his revitalised powers, using a signature percussive instrumental style that remains entirely unmatched.
