Re-mastered 2018 edition of this highly acclaimed collection features new, exceptionally high-resolution vinyl transfers and includes an additional since-revealed Booker single (both sides!).
Ever since Reverend Charlie Jackson's Booker singles were discovered by gospel collectors in the early 1970s and began to trickle out to a wider audience, Charlie Jackson's primal, funky guitar riffs have astounded listeners. Raw and unadorned and at other times spare and lyrical, his Booker and Jackson label recordings are infused with sanctified energy and singing. Further to his own singles here are records by Brother Ike Gordon, Caravan No. 2 of Zachary, and Laura Davis, which feature Reverend Jackson as accompanist. Until this album's initial 2003 release, these records had never been collected together and had never been issued on CD. Following it's original highly acclaimed issue, Rev. Jackson's songs were covered by The Black Crowes, Old Crow Medicine Show and Hank Williams Jr.
This updated 20-song set also includes a 16-page booklet with rare photos, full discography, and extensive liner notes covering Reverend Jackson's life and career.
Press quotes on original issue of this set:
"Once in a great while a record comes along that is so cripplingly amazing that it betrays all common manner of description." - OffBeat (New Orleans music monthly)
"In the 1970s, this Mississippi-born man of God made a series of holy-blues singles for the tiny Booker and Jackson labels. This set has 'em all: heated sermons of need, devotion and joy, blessed by Jackson's thunder-and-Lightnin' Hopkins voice and crusty-tremelo, railroad-boogie riffing. The reverend rocks it." - Rolling Stone
"Essential. These recordings are among the most exciting and intense gospel recordings you are ever likely to hear." - Roots & Rhythm
