Seattle Times - Carolina Chocolate Drops

"Twenty-five years ago, few African-American musicians would have dreamed of playing music so blatantly associated with street-corner minstrelsy — especially with a name like 'chocolate drops.' But like many new black singers of rural blues, this Durham, N.C., group has joyfully re-appropriated its own tradition."
