Review by Jonathan Marois

The album Death Letter Blues by Leadbelly is a classic blues album that showcases the raw talent of the legendary musician. Leadbelly's powerful voice and masterful guitar skills are on full display in this collection of 12 tracks, each one a testament to his incredible musical abilities.

From the haunting title track "Death Letter Blues" to the upbeat "Gallis Pole" and the melancholy "Goodnight Irene," this album is a journey through the many moods and emotions of the blues. The songs are simple and direct, yet deeply moving, and Leadbelly's performance is nothing short of electrifying.

Fans of blues music will find much to love in this album, as Leadbelly's influence on the genre is undeniable. His unique style and approach to the guitar have inspired countless musicians over the years, and his impact on music history cannot be overstated.
