“The late Mance Lipscomb was a major discovery by Mack McCormick and Chris Strachwitz. 'You Got to Reap What You Sow' is a new Arhoolie compact disc of his music. The subtitle 'Texas Songster Volume 2,' says it all. Mance Lipscomb wasn't a blues performer, but rather was a songster who played all sorts of songs for his family and friends. Once he was discovered and started playing concerts, he perhaps skewed his repertoire to the blues, but it was the depth of his repertoire that is invaluable The 24 songs give a sense of the depth of his repertoire, and include versions of Texas blues themes like 'Hattie Green'; blues recordings like Walter Davis' 'Come Back Baby' and Memphis Minnie's 'Bumble Bee'; ballads like 'Joe Turner Killed a Man,' and 'The Titanic'; and popular songs like 'Long Way to Tipperary' and `You Rascal You.' Mance was a wonderful guitarist and a warm singer. Reflecting the country house parties that he would play for most of his life, his performing style is simple and direct, devoid of gimmicks. This is an expanded version of the original album, which was his second Arhoolie release, and includes 13 previously unissued songs, including a rendition of 'Tom Moore Blues,' a blues about a Washington County, Texas landowner.” ~Ron Weinstock
