However, MISSISSIPPI HILL COUNTRY BLUES, culled from sessions in the late 1960s and early 1980s, features Burnside solo on acoustic guitar. His take on the droning, circular guitar riffs indigenous to the blues of the north Mississippi hill country, coupled with his electric band's skull-crushing power, is enough to send listeners into hypnotic convulsions of rapture. There isn't a blues artist alive today that can harness mercurial gutbucket chaos like R.L. Burnside (vocals, guitar) Red Ramsey (harmonica). R.L.Burnside - Mississippi Hill Country Blues 1967-84
