    The hard life of a blues singer, his albums never got the sales they deserved because he started releasing them during The Great Depression, Then his career got cut short because he was thrown in prison, his greatness was noticed by Charley Patton who invited him to play in shows and on albums. I feel blessed to hear the Reverand on this emotionally charged album. I enjoyed all 8 songs,The hard life of a blues singer, his albums never got the sales they deserved because he started releasing them during The Great Depression, Then his career got cut short because he was thrown in prison, his greatness was noticed by Charley Patton who invited him to play in shows and on albums.

    The power, pain, and suffering of the original Delta blues from perhaps its singly most important innovator is here to be appreciated in better sound quality than it ever has. ... This is Son House at his peak, this is one to savor and cherish. It will likely become his legacy recording.

    This is the kind of music only a tiny handful of people are ever fortunate enough to witness, and Forever on My Mind allows us to share that rare privilege.
