Jewish Blues Volume IV - Down home Nigguns and other Songs from the Family Tree An album used to be a record of an event, a moment in time, Raw, unpolished, untuned, un-clicked, and wide open. This was a time when a man in a suit in the south Walked in to record 27 tracks in 2 days that changed history. There time when Alan Lomax traveled the countryside Harvesting some of America’s ripest fruits on back porches and In cotton fields. I was encouraged by a friend to make a solo CD years ago It took me a while to get brave enough to strip down, Lose the band, and bear my soul. What you hear here is raw, unedited, single takes , Done live. My vision was to get all the excess out of the way So the music, soul and spirit would reach you. I pray that it Does. I pray that you sing and find YOUR Niggun.
