	Barnes & Noble.com - Music: Cross Cut Saw Blues, Vol. 2 1940-1942, Tommy McClennan, CD
		One of the last of the old country bluesmen to record, the diminutive Tommy McClennan delivered 40-some tracks to Bluebird Records between 1939 and 1942 before vanishing into the haze of blues history.
		Although small in stature, McClennan had a strong, raspy voice that brought a lively exuberance to his often generic lyrics, and his habit of tossing in spoken interjections -- he literally talked to himself as he sang -- give his songs the feel of intimate dialogues.
		McClennan was a limited guitarist, and his singing approach, while exciting, was essentially shouting, and he had obviously run out of fresh ideas by the time of these final recordings.

	Tommy McClennan
		Equally powerful and just as possessing was the whisky-charcoaled singing of Tommy McClennan, whose urgent and rough sound was able to hide the fact that he was not a very accomplished guitarist.
		McClennan was a small man, standing just 4 feet 10 and weighing somewhere around 133 pounds; a size that definitely belied the powerful voice he possessed.
		McClennan was married to a woman by the name of Ophelia and they had two children, Bubba and Carrie Mae.

		McClennan's rasping vocal veering between the menacing and the sensual, in the familiar dark melodic strains that have become associated with this famous blues.
		His spoken self -encouragement might refer to the fact he featured slide for the only time on a record, or that this was his most popular number in the jukes and barrelhouses in the Delta.
		Tommy McClennan, who was better known, had moved to Chicago and started recording for the Bluebird label in 1939.

	Barnes & Noble.com - Music: 1939-1940 Whiskey Head Woman, Vol. 1, Tommy McClennan, CD
		Tommy McClennan recorded his entire output, some 40 tracks in all, for Bluebird Records between 1939 and 1942, before wandering off the blues stage forever, supposedly dismissed by Bluebird because of his drinking problems.
		With his hoarse, shouted vocals, often with spoken asides, and rudimentary guitar style, McClennan worked from an intriguing but limited palette, and his work is best sampled in two- or three-song doses.
		So is "Whiskey Head Man," which simply changes gender and uses the exact same arrangement and phrasing as "Whiskey Head Woman." In a genre known for recycling guitar runs and rhymed couplets, McClennan takes it a step further and recycles his own songs in only slightly different guises, making him somewhat of a one-trick pony.

		There's been a lot of negative writing about McClennan in the past, but Big Tony is telling you: this is one of the great Delta artists.
		McClennan is thought to have stopped performing about 1952.

		Babe had known Tommy slightly and Roosevelt knew him a lot better, and that led to two of Tommy's brothers and any number of other singers that had been associated with Tommy Johnson.
		Of course, Tommy McClennan did one of the earliest versions of it, and he was originally from Yazoo City, but Robert Petway did the first recording.
		Tommy Johnson was alleged to have done it, and his brother Mager did a version of it.

		Unlike Johnson, Tommy McClennan is not renowned for his guitar playing.
		He sings in one voice and speaks in a second, spoken voice between phrases, sometimes between breaths, encouraging, cajoling and commenting on what the first voice is singing.
		It sounds spontaneous, but Honeyboy Edwards said McClennan often practiced performing in front of a mirror for hours.

		McClennan wasn't quite a master on par with the greats who came before him, or if he was, he was too drunk to prove it for posterity.
		Tommy was Robert Johnson's contemporary and while not of Johnson's calibur, still a great talent.

	Amazon.com: Cotton Picking Blues: Music: Tommy Mcclennan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Tommy McClennan was a unique, rough-voiced, dirty-guitar player from the Mississippi Delta, who laid down a batch of eccentric recordings between 1939 and 1942 before disappearing into relative obscurity.
		The complete set was reissued a couple of years back in a double CD from RCA, but this album from ABM presents a useful sample of the best of the man's music, as well as that of his buddy, Robert Petway.
		A comparison can be made of Petway's 'Ride 'Em On Down' and McClennan's 'New Shake 'Em On Down', and it serves to highlight the essential differences as well as similarities between their deliveries, and perhaps, their personalities.

		Petway is probably the better guitar player, although that isn't saying much, since McClennan was nothing if not rough and crude on the instrument.
		The sequencing on Cotton Pickin' Blues skips back and forth between the two bluesmen, which is a good idea, since it gives the album the illusion of having more variety than it actually has.
		Document has issued McClennan's complete work in two volumes, while the surviving 14 sides of Petway's complete work can be found on Catfish Blues: Mississippi Blues, Vol.
