The idea of pre-blues, which most music scholars reject, implies there is some sort of logical progression toward Blues or that other genres of music were eliminated by the emergence of Blues, but that is not true, especially since no African American folk or folk-pop musicians like Jackson were recorded until decades after the Blues had become an important genre of African American music.
Most recorded Blues artists had a much broader repertoire, but the recording companies usually demanded Blues and only Blues and what they thought were Blues. Much of this music is what can be called pop or country ragtime, Black country music merged with urban oriented pop music influenced by Ragtime. This music was a big part of what Black blues musicians played into the 1930s because the dances that were done to this music remained popular until Swing music replaced them. To survive, the central goal of a Blues singer and player was to be seen as a good dance player.
Jackson's "Going to Kansas City" was one of the first Downhome Blues hits by a Southern artist. On this CD he tries to play several remakes of the tune. Jackson probably had more latitude recording because he was a hit performer who sold records to Black folk across the country unlike most Blues musicians that current post-folk white Blues fans think were important, like Charlie Patton and Robert Johnson, whose records were only marketed in their local areas. This is probably why he was allowed to record a broad array of tunes.
