Eine faszinierende Compilation, die sich der Thematik Sünde, Alkohol, Spielsucht und Gefängnis verschreibt, wie der Titel schon sagt, eine Abkürzung ins Grab! Vertreten sind Künstler wie Blind Lemon Jefferson, Tampa Red oder auch Blind Willie McTell.
Dieser frühe Country Blues hatte nicht unwesentlichen Einfluss auf die Entwicklung des Blues im allgemeinen. Textlich geht es teilweise sehr heftig zur Sache, aber das lag wahrscheinlich auch in der Absicht der Künstler.
