Snooks eaglin
 

Anyone else into this amazing artist, who taught himself to play the guitar from listening to records and replicating the sound after becoming blind at the age of 19 months. I have a few tracks by him, and they really are great traditional blues tunes. You could easily picture him sitting on his porch strumming away to himself.

Anyone got any of his full albums and what is his later stuff like-I think my tracks are from his earlier days.

No takers? Have a listen:

Putfile - One Scotch One Bourbon One Beer Snooks Eaglin

Just listened to Out of Nowhere. Pretty awesome stuff. I didn't realize he was blind though, he just got even more respect from my end.

Hurrah! Someone else has listened to him! Do you have a full release Rezz? As a friend just did me a comp of 10 songs, so I have nothing official as such.

Unfortunately no, but Ill let you know if/when I find one.

Expect a PM :D

Holy smokes...the stuff on last.fm sound great! Can I get in on that PM too??? Pretty please...

I've got an Eaglin album, I'll send it your way.

Man was I depressed today. This song YouTube - Snooks Eaglin with George Porter Jr. - Red Beans [6/6] instantly made me feel better. It's hard to feel bad listening to that.
