Hurt made some recordings for Okeh Records in 1928, some of which were reissued on Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music.

The release of the Tom Hoskins recordings taken in Hurt's home in Avalon, Mississippi allow us to eavesdrop on the actual moment his career was reborn. The music is beautifully remastered and packaged with insightful and informative notes presented in a graphically powerful way
