Patton sits at the fount of delta blues like a pissed off bear, roaring & huge & unpredictable. And even if you can't see him flipping his guitar over his head, you can certainly hear him knock it to splinters while he's shouting to shake the leaves off the trees. Here's a reprint of the double record that Yazoo issued in 1970, which became the definitive statement on Patton for approximately 30 years.
