Senator John McCain is descended. Despite those humble beginnings, Mississippi John Hurt eventually emerged as one of the most beloved and most admired of American musical treasures. John’s first recordings date back to 1928, when he did some sessions for Okeh records in Memphis and New York.
Dick Spottswood and Tom Hoskins, a blues enthusiast, located Hurt in 1963 and persuaded him to move to Washington, D.C. [5] He was recorded by the Library of Congress in 1964. This helped further the American folk music revival, which led to the rediscovery of many other bluesmen of Hurt's era.
