Blind Willie McTell - Blind Willie McTell 1949 Trying To Get Home

Review by Tim Ponygroom

Blind Willie McTell's 1949 album "Trying to Get Home" is a classic blues album that showcases the artist's incredible talent and range. McTell's signature fingerpicking style is on full display here, with intricate melodies and rhythms that are both soulful and energetic.

The album features a mix of original songs and covers, all of which highlight McTell's storytelling abilities and his unique ability to capture the essence of the blues. From the haunting "Dyin' Crapshooter's Blues" to the upbeat "Broke Down Engine Blues," McTell's music is a testament to the power of the blues to express the full range of human emotions.
