'An Evening With Big Bill Broonzy' captures the late blues icon during his celebrated European tours. A period when he transitioned from an electric pioneer back to his acoustic folk-blues roots. Free from the racial and artistic constraints of the United States, Broonzy used his European shows to connect deeply with his audience, mixing standard blues staples and traditional folk tunes with political songs and engaging storytelling. Featuring a masterful blend of raw guitar work and his signature booming voice, this live recording is an essential artifact of the 1950s Folk-Blues revival.
Condition of this record is very nearly near mint. Only very minor wear to the record's surface. Nothing that will affect sound quality in any way.
