2007 studio album by Peter Case
Let Us Now Praise Sleepy John Peter Case , released in 2007. It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album .
History [ edit ]
The album was Case's first of new material in five years after six albums on the Vanguard label. The songs were written in tribute to blues artist Sleepy John Estes . Case wrote most of the songs in the middle of the night. "I’d wake up in the middle of the night and write. I woke up and a song would spill out… They just came out, fully formed. Other songs, like ‘Every 24 Hours,’ I wrote right before we went in the studio."[1]
