Jessie Mae Hemphill - Run Get My Shotgun

Jessie Mae Hemphill played guitar and drums, wrote and sang her own songs in the primal northern Mississippi hill country blues traditions.

Considered the Queen of the Guitar Boogie, as one of the earliest successful female blues musicians, Hemphill has been an influential and pioneering artist. Run Get My Shotgun is a ten track collection of field recordings originally recorded on New Years Eve 1989 by Ko de Korte and Tom Haarsama. Additional overdubs were produced by Bruce Watson at Delta Sonic Sound in Memphis, TN in 2018. Real and raw material from one of North Mississippi hill country blues' best!
