Huddie Ledbetter’s Best…His Guitar, His Voice, His Piano Leadbelly SKU: 8032 Barcode: 8436563185793 18.00 £18.00 Genre: Blues Label: Blues Joint Released Date: 25th October 2024 Buying Format: 180g 1LP Forthcoming Pre Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Limited edition 180g vinyl – the complete album + 4 bonus tracks. Leadbelly (born Huddie William Ledbetter 1888-1949) was one of the most influential figures in the history of popular music. The great blues and folk singer-songwriter is renowned for his powerful songs as well as for his prowess on the 12-string guitar. Belly’s material influenced folk, skiffle, and rock. The list of artists that have paid tribute to him by covering his songs is endless; Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Tom Waits, and Bruce Springsteen, among many others. Presented here is his complete Capitol 1962 LP Leadbelly, which also contains a session he recorded for that label in 1944. All these songs constitute a treasure trove of incalculable value, which would form the basis and spirit of Leadbelly’s legend and secure his reputation as one of the greatest pioneers of that classic era. “This is an exceptionally valuable Leadbelly collection. Not only was he at the peak vocal and instrumental abilities when these 12 selections were recorded, but the selections themselves are all interesting pieces of folklore. This is one of the essential folk albums. Beautifully recorded too.” – ***** Down Beat Artist Leadbelly Genre Blues Label Blues Joint Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Goodnight, Irene Grasshoppers In My Pillow The Eagle Rocks Rock Island Line Ella Speed Backwater Blues The Midnight Special Worried Blues Take This Hammer Tell Me, Baby Eagle Rock Rag Western Plain Sweet Mary Blues On A Christmas Day Black Betty Where Did You Sleep Last Night?
