83 year old blues guitarist Boo Hanks grew up sharecropping – and listening to Blind Boy Fuller on the gramophone. He released his debut album, Pickin' Low Cotton, just a few years ago, and now he’s busier than ever. For his latest release, he’s teamed up with Dom Flemons of the Grammy winning string band Carolina Chocolate Drops. The album is called Buffalo Junction.
