I think this first set is making someone, somewhere in Ireland pretty happy.



And folk elsewhere too, obviously!

I'm currently reminded of the slightly risque jukebox hit of Lanor Records' star Donald Jacobs " She Kept Chewing Gum "

For some reason 'rebel guitars in strange dialect' is reminding me of the theme tune to'the Double Deckers' (70s UK TV series - probably deeply rubbish but fond memories!)

Fri. 1/25/08 10:38am Liz B.:

Doug, what are you trying to say? We denizens of XX chromosome land are giving you problems?

Fri. 1/25/08 10:59am Doug:

Oh hardly Cecile! This show loves the wimmins. It neither endorses nor espouses the misogynistic content found in a helluva lot of the blues songs it airs -- purely for historical value, of course.

Fri. 1/25/08 11:02am Cecile:

Of course!

Fri. 1/25/08 11:02am Carmichael:

Fri. 1/25/08 11:20am Matt:

I always love it when you compare bands to baseball teams. The idea of Howlin' Wolf as a pitcher....man, he'd make Bob Gibson look like a little leaguer!

Fri. 1/25/08 11:27am Dave in Montreal:

Luren Bacall sings this one in the Big Sleep!

Again, you tickle the back of my brain, Doug. Soho Music Gallery. I spent many lonely afternoons in there as a bachelor teenager buying El Saturn 12"s and trolling through the Eno catalogue before going to hear Sun Ra at Art On The Beach.
