Prison Songs (Historical Recordings From Parchman Farm 1947-48), Vol. 2: Don'tcha Hear Poor Mother Calling?
Editorial Reviews
<"b0000002uw5540"> Living Blues
[This volume] in the continuing series ... [includes] some of the most exceptional singing ever recorded.... [This] disc is made up of unreleased tracks recorded at the same time [as the first], both additional work songs and hollers and such supporting material as interviews, lying contests, a rhymed toast, and a short sermon.... Volume two explores [group work songs] further, with alternate versions of the same songs.... Particularly interesting on [this album] are the spoken segments, both the exchanges of tall tales or "lies" and the scraps of interview.... The song lyric transcriptions are occasionally flawed, but often serve to clear up unintelligible passages.
