Just three old blues tunes, that's all.

November 28, 2008 6:00 AM

Ramblin' Thomas: No Job Blues (1928), J.D. Short: Lonesome Swamp Rattlesnake (1930), Bo Carter: My Baby (1940).

Ramblin' Thomas.
J.D. Short.
Bo Carter.

And one more for the road: a little of that trademark suggestiveness from Bo Carter: All Around Man.

The nasty, nasty Bo Carter! Never thought I'd see him on Metafilter, wow.

My band used to do "My Pencil Won't Write No More". Love that stuff. Thanks flapjax.

Love me some old-timey string-pluckin'. Danke, flapjax.

Thank you Sir. This nicely rounds off a day spent listening to Robert Johnson, Son House, Blind Boy Fuller, and Sleepy John Estes. I'm enjoyin'
