In the 1950s, from the boxes of 78rpm records stored under his bed at a YMCA hostel in Brooklyn, James McKune, an eccentric, white record collector, shaped what we think of today as the delta blues - the great black voices from the 1920s and 30s of Robert Johnson, Son House, Skip James and Charley Patton.

Historian Marybeth Hamilton tells McKune's story and charts the connections between record collectors and the music of passion, despair and alienation that emerged from the Mississippi Delta and spread around the world. With Greil Marcus, Luc Sante, Pete Whelan, Dick Spottswood and Morty Savada.
Producer Tim Dee
The current state of the blues is explored in The Death of the Blues? tomorrow at 9.15pm
