Notes: Charles Henry Tate was born in Georgia, but moved as a child to Greenville, South Carolina, where he knew Blind Boy Fuller. After serving in the Army in WW II, he moved to Spartanburg, and was active in that city's blues scene when not poursing his trade as a bricklader. Tate recorded in the '60s through his association with Pink Anderson, and again in 1970, although few titles from the later sessions have been issued, and none on CD. Tate wasn't an originator, and he'd learned most of his song two or three decades before he recorded them, but his version are lively, meaningful and personalized; even at his most Fullerish he wasn't a mindless imitator. It's easy to identify the bricks that Baby Tate used to built his music, but the mortar which binds them together is his considerable talent as singer and picker alike.
