I've been heavy into this lately in my non EDM listening. Robert Johnson, Skip James, Son House...etc. Anyone else a fan?
Robert Johnson - Drunken Hearted Man
Robert Johnson - Ramblin On My Mind
^^lyrics are next to the youtube videos on the page.
Skip James - Hard Time Killing Floor Blues
^^cover of this track by Chris Thomas King appeared in the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou?"
Skip James - Devil Got My Woman
^^ I love that bizarre high pitch he has.
There's lots more on the artists' myspace pages.
I've been working on some productions recently and I just ordered a box set of Robert Johnson's early recordings for sampling purposes, should be fun to mess with.
