AMERICANA | Traditional Roots & Blues (only)

Furry Lewis came a little later. I just heard this song on a local radio station that plays blues every Monday (show called Blue Monday) from 7pm to midnight.


He sure had a unique playing style, his version of "slide / bottle neck" is one I tried but it was impossible.

Skip James views Sir?

We're the only ones who know this music well sadly @Jerry Atrick which says so much imho.
It's such a sad thing in this day & age of the internet nobody else hunts this music down, I like all kinds of stuff from Industrial Techno to Black Metal but this "proper" American music hits a spot nothing else can.

Indeed. I like a wide variety of music as well, from Pete Seeger to Pantera and many more in between. I think our friend Townes summed it up best when he said, "There's only two types of music, the blues and zippadeedoodah."

I went to the gypsy to get my hambone done
I went to the gypsy to get my hambone done
Gypsy said Furry I declare you show me one


We just don't lyrics like that from other genres.
