Track B3, "Down Here By Myself" listed on the back cover as by "Big Joe Henry Miller" (Big Joe Henry Miller). I believe that this is actually "Big John Henry Miller" (Big John Henry Miller) (John Henry Miller), from Starkville, Mississippi (location as listed) and that the credits probably got mixed up using "Big Joe" instead of "Big John", especially because "Big Joe Williams" also appears on this release. I find a listing for Big John Henry Miller in the book "Blues: A Regional Experience", who died in Starkville, Mississippi in 1966 (https://books.google.com/books?id=6ZNfAQAAQBAJ&pg=PA115&dq=%22BIG+JOHN+HENRY+MILLER%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwid67XDnLzSAhVE74MKHQPaBOYQ6AEIHDAA#v=onepage&q=%22BIG%20JOHN%20HENRY%20MILLER%22&f=false). This is also Big John Henry Miller's only recording, and the song is also on these releases: Various - The Mississippi Blues, and Various - The Mississippi Blues. Added ANV for this track.
