Long Time Pretending - Scott Perry

Scott spent much of his life traveling up and down the East Coast and into the Midwest learning and honing his craft. He was first introduced to this music while in college by a Taj Mahal record, but soon was studying the records of Mississippi John Hurt, Robert Johnson and other country blues players from the 1920s and 30s. While in Chicago he learned directly from several of the recognized masters of traditional and Chicago blues including David “Honeyboy” Edwards, “Big Smokey” Smothers, Jimmy Walker, Carl Weathersby and Billy Branch.
