Brian Hoskin Charley Patton (17) RE: Charley Patton 18 Feb 04

I have several sets of Charlie Patton recordings (although not the most expensive) and I'd recommend buying the JSP 5 CD box set, which is excellent value.

Is the Wardlow and Calt book back in print then? I've only read it from a photocopy I obtained a few years back. I'll have to check Red Lick.

On the guitar playing ability of the man, I have this response from Bob Brozman to being asked what he listens to:

"Just about the only thing I listen to is Charley Patton. He is just so much more three dimensional than all the others."
(From a 1998 interview in Folk Roots 178).
