“He sat down at the table and he started telling my mother how he knew and loved all of daddy’s songs and his mother had them all.”
He further added:“It just blew my mind … It’s something I never forgot and then when I wrote this song I thought about him on that show and, (impersonating) ‘Lamont! Why you hanging out with all those old rich white honkies for? That’s exactly where it came from, folks. It’s love. It ain’t nothing but pure love.”
The album features 12 songs and was recorded live reprising classics from artists including Robert Johnson, Lightnin’ Hopkins, R.L. Burnside, and Muddy Waters, among others. It debuted at No. 1 on the Current Country, Americana/Folk, and Blues Albums charts.
