Scott Ainslie's Newest CD "Thunder's Mouth"

It was back in 1967 that Blues musician and songwriter Scott Ainslie heard John Jackson, a DC area gravedigger, play Piedmont Blues. Things have never been the same since. Ainslie is now releasing his fifth compact disc, Thunder's Mouth: a powerful, rootsy slice of traditional blues, original and African-American traditional songs.

Ainslie's original title song, "Thunder's Mouth", comes of split lineage. While the title phrase comes from Shakespeare, the setting and body of the song were inspired by slave narratives from the Nashville, TN area. It is a powerful song in good company on this CD.
