You might not have heard of Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter, but you've probably heard his work. Covered by artists like Nirvana, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Johnny Cash and Eric Clapton, Lead Belly's music continues to influence music today. Our host Chris talks to music historian and author of "Down In Houston: Bayou City Blues" Roger Wood and HMNS associate curator of paleontology (and expert on local history) David Temple about the legacy of this Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and the influence of prison life on blues music.
