Son House - Father of Folk Music
(VINYL RECORD)
Released:08/17/2018
 
The album you are referring to is titled Father of Folk Blues (or sometimes The Legendary Son House: Father of the Folk Blues). It was released in 1965 by Columbia Records following Son House's "rediscovery" during the American folk music revival. Son House was a highly influential Delta blues singer and guitarist who had largely disappeared from the music scene for over 20 years before being rediscovered in 1964. This album was his first major studio recording of the period and helped introduce his intense, emotional style of blues to a new, younger audience during the 1960s folk revival.
