This is probably the best known of the call-and-respond type of music recorded by the Lomaxes in the fields of the deep south in the early 20th century. Best known because it was sampled by Moby on the song Honey from the Play album that was utterly ubiquitous a few years back. Around about that time this album was released with the selling point of featuring a number of tracks pilfered by Moby, alongside some Blues and Folk classics. It is well worth a listen and is probably the blues comp I return to most often.
