Louisiana Swamp Blues 5 (CD)

Release Date: 06/18/98

On this CD you can listen to another Louisiana Blues legend, Clarence Edwards! He was born 1933 in Louisiana and played Charley Pattons 78s at home before he started to play music as a 12 year old. He was doing farmwork and met there the great Robert Pete Williams and Slim Harpo. He is both- a great singer and guitar player. On this CD with a full band and one session just with bass and drums. “Driving Wheel” and “Cold Black Mare” are two of the songs I like most !! On this CD are also two songs from Oscar ‘Harp’ Davis, who is one of the best harp players in Louisiana in the style of Slim Harpo.
