Yep wes, one interesting thing I found reading this stuff, Pop Staples is the father and founder of the Staples Singers a church group. Out of this group came one of the strongest female blues singer Mavis Staples. This song was about the civil rights movement as young people went north too fight for their rights.
Check out the web site James it really is some good stuff. Anyone into the slide and delta blues should check this site. I wonder what kind of instruments may have been made here.
