This CD features the remaining interviews I made in June and July of 1982 with the performers who appeared in the “Blues at Home” collection. Included are conversations about the meaning, origin, and exact spelling of blues verses, along with other topics, conducted with Memphis Willie Borum, Jack Owens, Jacob Stuckey, and Charlie Sangster. All tracks were digitally remastered from the original tapes in 2013. Editorial assistance by Corey Wetherington, Penn State University.
