The third volume of the Mbirafon “Blues At Home” Collection focuses on Eugene Powell, an outstanding but hitherto relatively neglected exponent of the Delta Blues. Born in 1908 in Utica, Mississippi, he took up the guitar at the age of seven and soon developed a formidable technique that won him the respect of contemporaries such as Charley Patton, Bo Carter, and Sam Chatmon. In 1936 he recorded six of his own songs, which were released on the Bluebird label under his adopted name of Sonny Boy Nelson, including the original version of “Pony Blues.” Recorded at informal sessions in his Greenville, Mississippi, home between 1976 and 1982, this CD includes a variety of songs and instrumentals. Excerpts of interview material in which he sheds light on his life and music are featured in volume 15 of the “Blues At Home” Collection. All tracks have been fully digitally remastered in 2013 from the original tapes. ~Giambattista Marcucci
