Oxford American has an article by Nathan Salsburg about J.B. Smith, a prisoner at Ramsey State Farm in Texas who was recorded by Bruce Jackson of Wake Up Dead Man fame.

A CD is planned for release in April by Dust-to-Digital.
(Given that the article describes J.B. Smith as Homeric, I'll be hoping for complete lyric transcriptions, a big failing of the recent, and musically great, Parchman book and CD set.)
