The Blues Sessions

The Blues Sessions by Pennsylvania bluesman Tim Woods is 12 tracks of serious guitar blues tradition. With a strong “blues bar band” sound, Woods expertly utilizes thumb picking into his playing to execute leads and rhythm simultaneously.

Blind Willie Dixon, Big Jack Johnson, David Honeyboy Edwards each have at least 2 tracks on this disk. Songs by Roosevelt Sykes and Chester Burnett round out what is essentially a respectable album of blues classics.
