Notes

Mississippi Fred McDowell, is the king of Hill-Country sound, it’s a stripped-down, aggressive style of blues. Mama Says I’m Crazy is a rare performance of McDowell recorded in his own home accompanied only by his long time friend Johnny Woods on Harmonica. Recorded in 1967 by archivist George Mitchell.
