A bit of a tough read, and maybe W C wasn't quite as central to the whole "Discovery of the Blues" thing as he claims, but it is a tremendous story and no-one else has a better right to tell it. So yay W C, and anyone with any interest in the Blues needs to at least have a look (then read Robert Palmer's "Deep Blues")
