Lightnin Hopkins - Goin\' Away
Label Original Blues Classics
Original Released: 1963
CD Release Date Dec 28, 1990
Format:Mp3@320CBR
For the 1963 album Goin\' Away, Lightnin\' Hopkins was backed by a spare rhythm section -- bassist Leonard Gaskin and drummer Herb Lovelle -- who managed to follow his ramshackle, instinctual sense of rhythm quite dexterously, giving Hopkins\' skeletal guitar playing some muscle. Still, the spotlight remains Hopkins, who is in fine form here.
