Product Notes

A major archival discovery, taped March 24, 1963 for a Milwaukee, Wisconsin radio program, on the eve of the very same day that the seminal Blues, Rags & Hollers LP by Koerner, Ray & Glover was created. Spider John Koerner is the man who first introduced a young Bob Dylan to the 12-string guitar, a bona fide legend who is acknowledged as an influence by artists as diverse as John Lennon, Beck, the Doors & Dylan himself. Nearly 50 years ago, Paul Nelson, writing in the Little Sandy Review and Sing Out respectively, said that "Koerner's art is like Chaplin's, as great and lasting as it is entertaining, " while calling him "the most innovatively brilliant acoustic blues musician of his generation." in the year 2010 - seldom performing and now in his 70s - we call the reclusive Koerner "one of the world's greatest living practitioners of traditional American folk music." It is with enormous pride that Nero's Neptune presents this long-lost piece of American musical history. Track listing: Duncan & Brady, Southbound Train, Hangman, Rock Me, Too Bad Blues, Guitar Fools, Creepy John, You've Got to Be Careful, Good Time Charlie, Ramblin' Blues, (untitled instrumental, edited)
