This set from Sony reissues the Son House Library of Congress recordings from 1941 and 1942. This material was previously issued on Biograph with a different cover. The only real difference, besides improved sound quality, is the reversal of playing order of "Delta Blues" and "Levee Camp Blues." Other highlights among the 15 remastered Delta blues tracks include "American Defense," "Pony Blues," and "Special Rider Blues." This disc is recommended to anyone who has the slightest interest in early American acoustic blues. ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide
