Sorry Darryl, can't help.
John Hurt recorded 13 tunes for Okeh in 1928, but when his records didn't sell in any great numbers, and because he didn't set much store on a musical career, he went back to the land.
Fortunately for us, he was tracked down in 1965, still living in Avalon, MS where he'd been in '28. By this time he was over 70, and his musical dexterity on the delightful recordings he made after his "rediscovery" never ceases to astound me.
A similar thing happened in the case of Bukka White.
Two blues enthusiasts (John Fahey was one) wrote a letter to Bukka White (Old Blues Singer) c/- General Delivery, Aberdeen, Mississippi in 1963. Apparently, a relative of White's was working in the post office and forwarded the letter to him in Memphis. Thus the resurrection of Bukka White.
And let's not forget Son House. Rediscovered in 1964 by three enthusiasts, one of whom was Alan Wilson of Canned Heat. The Blind Owl actually "taught" Son how to play Son House, since he hadn't played guitar in a very long time.
Personally, I'm so very pleased that these old guys, and others, received some recognition and rewards for their immense talents, and enriching my life.
