In fact 23 blues, songs and ballads covering various traditions. These sides were recorded in May 1963 and originally issued as the albums 'Got A Mind To Ramble' and 'Blues, Songs & Ballads' on the Prestige label, more known for its jazz output. The songs were from the pens of various folky contemporaries of Rush's, including Maria Muldaur and Eric Anderson and Von Schmidt as well as blues from Jesse Fuller, Leroy Carr, Broonzy and Sleepy John Estes. Tom Rush went on to record for Elektra and CBS through the '60s and '70s and still pops up on the folk circuit from time to time.
