"Titon is among the best writers on the blues, and his choices are informed by his obvious expertise and love of his subject." -- Steven C. Tracy, author of Langston Hughes and the Blues
"Effectively fills a gap in the record of blues textual transcriptions by anthologizing downhome or country blues of this period. . . . Titon's brief yet insightful and authoritative introduction . . . provides information on the form, history, and meanings of downhome blues that complement the song texts nicely. Obviously indispensable to blues specialists." -- Rory Turner, Folklore Forum
