The record

Nelson is credited on guitar, piano and vocals, with Charlie Musselwhite's harmonica answering her and Peter Wolfe adding a second guitar. Samuel B. Charters produced. Twelve titles in mono on Prestige from 1965, among them 'Baby Please Don't Go', 'Long Old Road' and 'House Of The Rising Sun'. A plain, unfussy blues session.
