Blind Lemon Jefferson:1893-1929. The popularity of Blind Lemon Jefferson in the 1920s heralded the true arrival of country blues to a mass audience. Jefferson was a genuine musical vagabond, traveling extensively to take his music to the people. Recordings reveal a deftness for intertwining the rhythms of voice and guitar. His guitar technique was, in a word, unpredictable, and most guitarists would be hard pressed to replicate it. Best known for blues gems like “See That My Grave Is Kept Clean,” and “Match Box Blues,” his self-penned compositions were a vivid social commentary on the south in the early 1900s.
