Feel Like Going Home

Peter Guralnick · first published 1971 · ISBN 9780316332729

Guralnick's debut collects profiles of blues masters and roots musicians from the late 1960s and early 1970s. The book includes vivid encounters with Muddy Waters, Skip James, and Howlin' Wolf, alongside chapters on Jerry Lee Lewis, Charlie Rich, and the Memphis and Chicago blues scenes. These are not interviews: they are stories built from observation, memory, and a genuine sense of what these artists had done for American music.
