5.0 out of 5 stars Complete Recs. (cont.) by the Delta's first star., 1 Dec 2000
By A Customer
The second part of the 3-CD Complete Recorded works by Charley Patton, is the most melodious of the lot. Patton treats the traditional "Frankie and Albert" to his own growling manner but the two takes of "Some of these Days" are quite pleasing and feature feet stomping and hand clapping by Patton. "Green River Blues," a personal favorite finds Patton at ease and confidant with the song's slow meditation on the rolling Mississippi River of life. It has that longing quality that will only be matched in his penultimate, surviving recording "Poor Me." Allegedly, "Green River Blues" was the song that W.C. Handy, on missing a train in Tutwiler, Mississippi 1903, had heard from a man sitting next to him, who pressing a knife against his guitar repeated the line, "I'm going were the Southern cross the Dog" three times. This is the earliest recorded evidence of the blues as a distinct expressive form, to be put down on disc only 20 years later. The unknown man could have been the unrecorded Henry Sloan, the Dockery plantation bard or Patton himself. Included on this volume are two Henry Sims vocals, "Farell Blues" and "Come Back Corrina" on which Patton plays guitar. "John Lee Blues" has Patton in very high spirits and a great deal of surface noise on the second part. In "I Shall not be Moved" Patton made sure he was being heard right across the county! His voice is still heard today.
