Today's topic, Kid Bailey. Kid
Bailey was a Mississippi Delta blues man.

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:25.719
His one known recording session occurred on
September twenty fifth, nineteen twenty nine,

00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:33.640
in Memphis, Tennessee. He collaborated
with Charlie Patton and a circle of Delta

and early thirties, such as Sun
House and Tommy Johnson, just to name

a few. Little is known about
Bailey. His voice had a distinctly course

recordings have survived out Rowdy Blues and Mississippi
