...it is a complete concert from Oberlin College on April 15, 1965. Regardless, the title is justified, as the concert features Hurt in excellent form doing most of his best known classic songs from the 1920s as well as newer compositions. (Bruce Eder, Allmusic)trax:

He was one of the very best....
You might want to check out the "American Epic" documentary on MJH
and his rediscovery in 1963. He did not even own a guitar by then!
MJH starts at 55:32.
Includes a clip from Newport 1963 with John Hammond jr watching closely,
and an interview at Newport in 1965,in the background you can hear Bob Dylan:

@RankStranger: thank you for the video, too!
Cheers!
@Aging child
Yes!
Could you share them?!!
@Aging Child
Yes, I couldn't possibly have all those MJH! Thanks
@RankStranger
a great tip about the doco
@Aging Child, great collection. Could you share it somewhere?
@Cri: Not to worry; I just started posting yesterday... and probably should have clarified it here. Check out in the "Comments" page for "And Now for Something Completely Different" among yesterday's and today's posts (3/23 and 3/24), and for the next several days following.
All credit goes especially to the talented Mr. Hurt, and to the kind folks who posted his work online over the last decade or two... and also to RYP and Gyro for providing a big basement where we can get together and share these great discoveries.
@FlatSpin: I'm surprised you don't have all these already... so I'm glad to help rectify that shortcoming.
Cheers!
@Aging Child, much obliged and many many thanks for the efforts of you and RYP! I will continue looking; cool!
