mrbill345Avoiding a hijack of the Blues songs thread ...
The blues song thread reminded me of recently having seen it.
Did anyone catch the American Epic documentary on PBS? It's about the record companies going out in the 1920's & recorded many different blues, country, & folk artists.
https://twitter.com/colin_dunlap/status/876145037314314240 It included blues artists Mississippi John Hurt, Robert Johnson, Memphis Jug Band, Charley Patton, Son House, Blind Willie Johnson, & more.
Some really great music.

83v45magnaI saw a commercial for it at some point. I have the vague feeling it was due to air in the fall.
