Our Take

Hailed as the ultimate collection of Lead Belly's most influential recordings, "Selected Sides 1934 - 1948" is a treasure trove of raw talent and soulful storytelling. This album captures the essence of a true musical pioneer, whose impact on the American folk and blues scene cannot be overstated. Lead Belly's distinct voice and mastery of the 12-string guitar shine through on every track, from the spirited "Goodnight, Irene" to the haunting ballad "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?". His ability to blend traditional folk tunes with his own personal experiences creates a sound that is both timeless and deeply personal. Listeners are treated to a journey through Lead Belly's varied repertoire, exploring themes of love, loss, and social injustice. Each song is a powerful reminder of the resilience and creativity of this iconic artist, whose influence can be heard in the works of countless musicians to this day. In an era of auto-tuned pop stars and manufactured hits, Lead Belly's music serves as a refreshing reminder of the power of authenticity and passion. "Selected Sides 1934 - 1948" is a must-have for any music lover looking to delve into the rich tapestry of American roots music, and is sure to leave a lasting impression on all who listen.
