Yeah, I honestly didn't know that there are TWO distinct kinds of Blues Music in Mississippi. I thought that it was all Delta Blues.

I think that I prefer the Hill Country sound.

The cool part is that in a few listenings to each, you can begin to hear their particularities.

This isn't necessarily Hill Country, but find the field recordings Alan Lomax did back in the day. Cat actually took the time to drive all over Mississippi and record OLD blues hands out in fields, front porches and the like.

I am convinced that the world would be a worse place if he hadn't taken the initiative to do so.
