Mississippi John Hurt - Discovery: The Rebirth Of Mississippi John Hurt

On a fateful day in 1963 guitarist, blues fanatic, and inspired roamer Thomas Hoskins rapped on the door of a small house in rural Mississippi. The house was at the end of a long, twisted road for Hoskins and the beginning of a new, unknown road to be traveled with Mississippi John Hurt. These "lost" recordings have never been heard by the general public and provide a window into a period before John Hurt became a professional musician and the most respected songster in the American folk movement. Keep checking back to Spring Fed Records for more information concerning this never published historic recording.
