From the last.fm page:
A pure delta blues musician, he plays “just the straight, natural blues,” and he “do not play no rock and roll.” He plays with a glass slide, but learned to play with a hollowed out beef bone. McDowell initially played the recognizable resonator guitar, but during tours and recordings beginning in the 1960s, he adopted the use of electric guitar, and was probably the first original delta or country blues musician to do so. McDowell’s style is incredibly distinctive and recognizable, and is probably the dirtiest sounding guitarist ever, and one of the most influential.
I think that just about covers it. Excellent blues.
