Got this from the bbc website:
"After growing up in the Mississippi Delta, Burnside moved north to Chicago in the 1940s, but came back south after his father and two brothers were killed in the city.
He returned to a country living, and served six months in jail after shooting a man Burnside said was trying to turn him out of his home.
"It was between him and the Lord, him dyin'," Burnside remarked in a 2002 New Yorker article.
"I just shot him in the head."
