Charley Patton - Father Of The Delta Blues: Selections from Paramount Recordings, Vol. 2 [RSD Black Friday 2025]

The raw, thunderous power of Charley Patton resounds once again in this essential second volume of Father of the Delta Blues: Selections from Paramount Recordings.

These tracks capture Patton at his most urgent and unfiltered, delivering fierce slide guitar, hollered vocals, and lyrics steeped in mystery, defiance, and deep Mississippi soul. This volume continues the excavation of Patton’s singular legacy: part preacher, part trickster, part storyteller. Lovingly restored and remastered by Dave Gardner, Volume Two is not just a document of early blues — it's a glimpse into the roots of American music itself, where rhythm met rebellion and history was etched into shellac. 

Pressed on color vinyl exclusively for RSD Black Friday 2025.
