CeDell Davis is an 88 year old delta blues legend whose ancient, dusty voice sounds as rich as the Mississippi Delta he grew up next to. Recorded on location in Water Valley, Mississippi, Last Man Standing contains songs from his storied 70 year career, with an all-star backing band that includes Screaming Trees/Mad Season/Walking Papers drummer Barrett Martin, Squirrel Nut Zippers guitarist Jimbo Mathus, Zipper's bassist Stu Cole, and blues guitarists Zakk and Greg Binns. This 2 CD set also contains CeDell's 2002 live album ''When Lightnin' Struck The Pine'' featuring REM's Peter Buck on guitar and Barrett Martin on drums. This a must have collection for anyone who loves the dirty delta blues, because CeDell Davis is one of the greats.
