Mississippi Fred McDowell - Lord Have Mercy : Alan Lomax recording Sessions, Como, Mississippi, September 21 to 25, 1959.
in 1959 when he was first hunted down at his home in Como, Mississippi by Alan Lomax (and Shirley Collins) he had not yet made a single recording. The first time McDowell’s amazing repertoire was ever committed to tape was when Lomax set up his tape recorder on McDowell’s front porch and over a period of 4 days from September 21-25, 1959 proceeded to record McDowell singing and playing acoustic guitar, joined at times by guitarist Miles Pratcher and Fannie Davis on comb. Occasional vocals were also provided by McDowell’s wife Annie Mae, James Shorty, Sidney Carter and Rose Hemphill. Lord Have Mercy is an excerpt of that historic front porch session.
