I've been looking forward to this for a while... and it does not disappoint. Favorite so far, "Devil Got My Woman", a Skip James song from 1931. That's one of the more ethereal tracks here, but the more rocking stuff is great too... track 2, "Little By Little", is a great blues song in the ABB tradition.
They'll have it streaming on NPR's All Songs Considered until January 18, when the disc will be available for purchase. Highly recommended.

Thanks, Rock. Edited the post to include the link to that article...
