Texas compilation T2

Duration: 2:24:49

Compilation of Texas blues and related music (including Cajun and Zydeco) compiled by Mack McCormick, incorporating many of his own field recordings made between 1959 and 1961 (tracks 7-10, 16-37). A note to Oliver on the typed tracklist indicates an intention to publish them: ‘Would like to know any of these you regard as worthy of being released. May get an anthology together.’
