Torchbearer Of The Clarksdale Sound [CD]

Big A Sherrod - Torchbearer Of The Clarksdale Sound [CD]

The singer is a son of the Clarksdale Blues: Anthony "Big A" Sherrod, a local ace who had been raised by a gospel family and the after-school program of the Delta Blues Museum and become the godson of Big Jack Johnson. Here are the Clarksdale blues touched by love, loss, and a little psychedelia, captured straight to tape in the town where they were born.
