I've been listening to a lot of Hi Henry Brown recently and it's struck me that most of his output is social comment -
Titanic blues, Preacher blues, Nut factory blues, Hospital blues, Skin man blues. I wonder if there are any other artists whose recorded repertoire includes so much of this material.
The other artist who comes to mind is Sleepy John Estes.
