Mississippi John Hurt sang with a warmth and reflective quality that made him sound like no other blues singer in the world, and these Library of Congress Recordings showcase his gospel-influenced style beautifully. PORTION OF THE PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO THE NATIONAL BLACK CHILD DEVELOPMENT INSTITUTEDISC ONE 1.
