M.C. Records is proud to release "Stripped Down In Memphis" by legendary Mississippi blues man Big Jack Johnson. This posthumous, acoustic release, was recorded during several sessions in Memphis in 2000. All the tracks have never been released before and feature either the late Wild Child Butler or Kim Wilson on harmonica. The extended EP contains nine songs.
M.C. Records recorded and released four recordings by Big Jack Johnson from 1996-2002. His collaboration with Kim Wilson, "The Memphis Barbecue Sessions" won The Blues Music Award for Acoustic Records of the Year. Johnson's music reaches back beyond today's electric imitators of the blues. It's all a very satisfying snapshot of a style of blues that still deeply connects. - Blues Revue It's good that these songs have finally been released. They show that Big Jack Johnson was a very powerful blues artist, who was highly undervalued. - Bluestown Music This is the real stuff with no artificial sweeteners added. - Making A Scene

Press Quotes
A posthumous set paying tribute to an acoustic blues cat that made a bunch of the moves that would become tropes and clichés in the hands of others. Culled from two sessions he did for the label, the recording technique is better than Lomax field recordings but the heart is right in the right place. Real blues from a cat that knew how to deliver and deliver he did.
—Chris Spector, Midwest Record review
