I picked up a copy of a delta blues CD by James Mathus. He does a song called Torture Blues. Looked around a bit so I could post a link but could not find one. But, if you're into the blues, I highly suggest this album (this song).

I found a couple of stray things on youtube and a jimbomathus.net website. Sounds like a good entertainer. Type that just wants to play some guitar and sing. Not enough of that going around sometimes.

(never could find that song, though)

I listened to , what I think is their latest album, and without ever seeing a pic of the band or James, thought he was an old black blues singer. The Torture Blues song, makes him sound like he's about 90 years old. (But in a good way if you know what I mean)

There's not much out there on this guy but the discography shows that he's got a few albums out. I'm going to pick up another.
