TEXAS ALEXANDER. Blue Devil Blues. The image in the background of this video is hilarious. That aside, let us not forget how much the Devil must have influenced Texas Alexander. He sang a lot of songs about shooting women, and ended up murdering his wife in 1939.
LONNIE JOHNSON. Blue Ghost Blues.
FURRY LEWIS. Mean Old Bedbug Blues. “Beadbug’s big as a jackass, he will bite you, stand and grin.”
JIM JACKSON. I’m A Bad Bad Man.
CHARLIE PATTON. Farrell Blues. I get this fiddle stuck in my head all day.
FRANK STOKES. Take Me Back.
BLIND BLAKE. That Will Happen No More. I’ve neglected this tumblr. That’ll never happen no more.
BARBECUE BOB. Cloudy Sky Blues.
CHARLIE PATTON. Tom Rushen Blues. This song is about a friend of Patton’s, Halloway, getting busted for moonshine. Tom Rushing was the deputy sheriff who arrested him.
