Description
THE COMPLETE LP + 3 BONUS TRACKS - 180g VIRGIN VINYL - LIMITED EDITION. During the early and mid-years of the 20th Century it was common for blues players to team up to enhance their appeal. Such liaisons were usually temporary and often unremarkable, but some like the pairing of Lightnin' Hopkins and Sonny Terry were extremely worthwhile as this fine album, Last Night Blues, attests.
"On this stunningly effective disc, the acid, impassioned blues style of the east Texas Piney Woods region meets the equally intense and gripping approach bred in rural North Carolina. Hopkins and Terry, coevals in age and heritage, represent the best of their traditions, and they complement each other magnificently here." - *****Down Beat
