Among the earliest and most influential Delta bluesmen to record,
Skip James was the best-known proponent of the so-called Bentonia
school of blues players, a genre strain invested with as much
fanciful scholarly 'research' as any. Coupling an oddball guitar
tuning set against eerie, falsetto vocals, James' early recordings
could make the hair stand up on the back of your neck.
Even more surprising was when blues scholars rediscovered him in the
'60s and found his singing and playing skills intact. Influencing
everyone from a young Robert Johnson (Skip's 'Devil Got My Woman'
became the basis of Johnson's 'Hellhound On My Trail') to Eric
Clapton (who recorded James' 'Im So Glad' on the first Cream
album), Skip James' music, while from a commonly shared
regionaltradition, remains infused with his own unique personal spirit.
