Tommy McClennan
Big Road Blues has a two part post on their blog about the pre-war bluesman Tommy McClennan, with some mp3 downloads to boot: Part One Part Two
McClennan is a contradiction; at once wholly individualistic with his powerhouse gravel-throated voice, sprinkled with frequent entertaining spoken asides propelled by an exciting, rudimentary guitar style while on the other hand derivative, with a repertoire mostly drawn from other artists.
