Description
Arhoolie CD 429 / These recordings were made in November of 1994 at Reverend Wilson‘s home and church in Mississippi. The CD includes reissues of his 1950s 78 rpm records with his sons on harps. Wilson, 83, is finally winning some recognition for his love of spiritual music. He was named as one of 11 folk artists from across the nation to win a National Heritage Fellowship grant given by the National Endowment for the Arts. Wilson’s music has enjoyed recent accolades at the Chicago Blues Festival, the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, the Smithsonian Festival of American Folklife and other traditional American musical festivals. A tribute album to the legendary blues artist Robert Johnson on which Wilson played his version of the spiritual “This Train (Is Bound For Glory)” was nominated for a Grammy Award in 1993.
