Secondo AllMusic, "La scena blues di Atlanta degli anni '20 era tra le più fertili del Sud, con un flusso costante di musicisti rurali che convergevano sulla città sperando di ottenere visibilità suonando nel circuito dei club locali, cercando di esibirsi, con un po' di fortuna, nel famoso Teatro 81 di Decatur Street." Il più anziano rappresentante del blues di Atlanta era Peg Leg Howell, che fece le sue prime registrazioni nel 1926.
