"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
I was a bit of a Chris Whitley fanatic--I have all studio albums and had seen him live probably 7 or 8 times including right before he passed 3 or 4 years ago now. Living With the Law is a stone cold classic in my view. Sadly he never gained wide acclaim.
(Alcohol and other personal demons didn't help that cause either.)
You won't regret picking up Dirt Floor and War Crime Blues if you don't have them.
Dirt Floor the title track with video stills.
To Joy--more electric sounding, more modern approach to blues
