from liner notes: "The sad factor is that for most of the artistes here, the few sides on this LP represent their total recorded output. A short session in a makeshift studio, ending in 3 or 4 sides, a few dollars paid, this was the beginning and end of their recording careers. Like their old 78's details and information about these artistes is extremely hard to come by: no one wants to remember the singer who 'never made it'. What information there is available has been acquired by an extremely small number of blues researchers, one of whom writes the following notes. John G. Allinson
