Album Notes
An expansive but reasonably priced compilation from the ever-reliable JSP imprint, AIN"T TIMES HARD collects four discs worth of classic blues sides that focus on themes of economic hardship, political disenfranchisement, and social inequality. The set embraces styles as varied as the syncopated Piedmont blues of Blind Blake, the rowdy medicine show stomp of The Mississippi Sheiks, and the sophisticated piano-led Chicago blues of Leroy Carr. It serves as a first-rate introduction to the varied landscape of American blues, and also as a valuable repository of rare and classic recordings.
