Our Take

Oh man, strap in folks because we are going on a time-travelling musical journey with the one and only Josh White. That's right, we are diving headfirst into the Early Years Collection 1929-36, and let me tell you, it's a wild ride.

From the moment you press play, you are transported back to a time when music was raw, authentic, and downright soul-stirring. White's bluesy vocals and masterful guitar playing take centre stage, leaving you no choice but to sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you like a soothing wave of nostalgia.

Tracks like "Cotton-Eyed Joe" and "Honey, Take a Whiff on Me" showcase White's unparalleled talent and distinctive style, while songs like "So Soon in the Morning" and "St. James Infirmary Blues" remind us of the sheer emotional depth that this man was capable of reaching.

But it's not all serious stuff, oh no. White's charming wit and playful energy shine through on tracks like "One Meat Ball" and "Hard Times Ain't Gone Nowhere," proving that even in the darkest of times, music has the power to uplift and inspire.

So, grab yourself a cup of tea, sit back, and let Josh White take you on a musical journey like no other. The Early Years Collection 1929-36 is a must-listen for any true music lover, so don't miss out on this gem of an album. Trust me, you won't regret it.
