Notes: This disc contains some of the classic recordings in the ragtime blues tradition.
The eight tracks by William Moore, his only issued recordings, have long been favourites with collectors of this genre. Moore (1894 - 1948) was a barber in Tappahannock, Virginia, and performed ragtime songs and gentle blues to his own beautiful guitar accompaniments. Tarter and Gay provide two sophisticated ragtime duets from 1930, while Chicken Wilson & Skeeter Hinton offer more rural entertainment with some lively ragtime numbers for guitar, harmonica & washboard from 1928. Bayless Rose performs three ragtime - influenced blues in the East Coast tradition & one classic rag, "Jamestown Exhibition".
The final performers are better known. The great Blind Blake is represented with a typically virtuoso rendition of "Dry Bone Shuffle", with appropriate percussion. The final three tracks are the only issued recordings by the legendary South Carolina guitar genius Willie Walker. His breathtaking guitar playing, which Josh White likened to Art Tatum's piano style, still impresses today.
This is a wonderful compilation, and showns clearly how ragtime influenced the East Coast guitar blues tradition. Anyone who buys this is guaranteed hours of enjoyment. ~ B.D. Tutt
