People say going down south is like
going home. Take a trip to the
Mississippi Delta to find the true
meaning of the Blues.
Everyone has hard times throughout
their lives, but does that classify as
the Blues? Producers Askia Muhammed and
Debra Morris search for an answer while
going home.
Going Home to the Blues is a SOUNDPRINT classic, produced by Askia Muhammed and Debra Morris. Special thanks to Njemile Rollins. You've been listening to James Son Thomas, Shock Williams, Bobby Whalen and the Ladies Choice Band, and the St. James Mission Baptist Church Women's Choir.
