David “Honeyboy” Edwards, vocal, guitar, harmonica.
Genres: Mississippi country blues, Country blues guitar. Blues Harmonica.
Although Honey Boy remained in the background, as the blues of the rural Southern States experienced its mixed fortunes of popularity, from the heydays of the nineteen twenties and thirties to its obscurity of the fifties, through to the revivals of the sixties and eighties when it found its permanent place in global music, he remained throughout an active performer and true to his cause.
Made during his 1975 trip to Europe, these recordings are among the very best that he made. He was in his prime, playing guitar, harmonica and singing with great strength and verve.
