Reviews"...Intended as a comprehensive reissue of the recordings Moses Asch made of the singer between 1941 and 1947...", "...Compiling most of his best-known songs (`Irene,' `Cotton Fields'), it's the first Lead Belly `greatest hits' CD. The scratchy audio quality only adds to its history-in-the-making aura." - Rating: A, 5 Stars - Excellent - "Many of the tracks on this timeless folk classic were originally released after Lead Belly's death in 1948 and show the roots of Lead Belly's music....complemented by outtakes, unreleased and alternate versions of other Lead Belly material, all of it absolutely wonderful."
