AMG Review of Blues, Stay Away from My Door

Steve Leggett
All Music Guide

The songs in this set were recorded in the early '40s, and have been pressed in this sequence many times over, most recently as a Tradition Records release called Goodnight Irene. Pilz Records also used that title when it released this same set, while Classic World called it Blues Best and Liquid 8 named it Blues, Stay Away from My Door. The music is fine in whatever version, but at only 28 minutes in length, there isn't much here.
