The blues have been a major focus of music in Texas, from the earliest days of commercial recordings right up to the present. And there has been an impressive lineage of great Texas fingerstyle blues guitarists, from Blind Lemon Jefferson, the first country blues recording star, to the impassioned singing and unearthly slide guitar of Blind Willie Johnson, on up to the genre-defining sound of Lightnin’ Hopkins and the late-in-life instrumental mastery of Mance Lipscomb. With such a dazzling array of Texas Blues players to choose from, a book devoted to Texas fingerstyle blues guitarists was a natural project to undertake. The artist featured in this book are: Blind LemonJefferson, Willie Reed, Blind Willie Johnson, Little Hat Jones, J. T. “Funny Papa” Smith, Smith Casey, Wallace Chains, Willie Lane, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Lil’ Son Jackson, Frankie Lee Sims and Mance Lipscomb.
