1 more song to go from me.

Just on that Frank Hutchison song. It no doubt sounds scratchy but it is taken off of a 78rpm that was recorded in the late 1920's. His complete recordings were only 32 songs. He played the guitar and harmonica as well as singing. He wrote a song called Stackalee. Some would know variations of the theme by the name of Stagger Lee. He is worth a listen for historical reasons.

Yeah, I was wondering what was up with all those 'Stagger Lee' or variations in LastFM last night.

Good song for its time :thumbsu:

It was a great listen spy:p: I have not played them all either. The quantity of artists who have done a variation of the theme is huge. The 4 files that I scored are in total each containing 15 versions.


And yeah you are right. Good for the times though now seemingly, and sadly, obscure
allmusic writes about him
Quote:

The first white bluesman to record, Frank Hutchison recorded for a brief three years. But the 32 tunes that he recorded between 1926 and 1929 influenced everyone from Leo Kottke and Spider John Koerner to Bob Dylan and Paul Geremia. Doc Watson covered both sides of Hutchinson's first single, "Worried Blues"/"The Train That Carried the Girl Back Home," recorded in New York in October 1926. Cowboy Copas rewrote Hutchison's tune "Coney Isle," renamed it "Alabam'," and had a country hit in 1960. An ex-miner, Hutchison reportedly learned to play the blues by watching Bill Hurt, a disabled black man, as a youngster. Best known for his slide guitar playing, Hutchison held his guitar on his lap, in the style popularized in Hawaii.

Nada... You really think I would pick something that mainstream? ;) :p:

Still, good pick, whoever it was.

4ZZZ 04-14-2009 07:36 AM

Well yeah I do:laughing:.


Yeah great track.

Zarko 04-14-2009 07:41 AM

Nothing really screams out 'Person X' to me in this compilations... Dunno why.

FWIW, I contributed 3 tracks.

Reckon 3 tracks per person is a bit too much :p:

Teehee...actually, on the last one I guessed of yours I unintentionally cheated. I happen to pull up my scrobbler and lo and behold there was your name! Everything beyond that is just sheer talent. :cool: Or me having too much time on my hands. lol.

Yeah, I've whored Truart...

I guess I've gotta start picking some tracks with lyrics to confuse everyone :p:

Zarko 04-14-2009 11:12 AM

Actually, that just annoys me even more, considering it wasn't guessed by someone who read my journal and could have gotten it ASAP :mad: :p:

Don't know if it matters...but I did read your journal after the fact. :o: I have a bad habit of reading everyone's journals and not commenting. Maybe I should change that...

LoathsomePete 04-14-2009 11:13 AM

I don't think anyone is gonna make the connection but Audible Mainframe was my choice. I believe I made a live band hip hop mix tape that like... 1 person downloaded, and I also mentioned them in my Live Band Hip Hop Thread I made in the hip hop and rap forum. I am glad that people enjoy them though, MC Exposition is an amazing MC

Nah ts'all good... Been guilty of it myself plenty of times, so it's not like I should expect the reverse from anyone else.

Well then you think I would've guessed that correctly. The song was pretty awesome. Is the rest of the album similar? Worth downloading?

Edit: I'm just going to go download your mixtape and see how we likes it.

LoathsomePete 04-14-2009 11:44 AM

I only included one song by them in the mix tape and I'm pretty sure it was "1000 Lives". Regardless the album is stellar and I just sent you a PM.

Bulldog's is two. I remember he sent another track but I noticed it was m4a so omitted it and didn't adjust my notes.

Hey, also someone guessed the Philip Glass track was Demonoid a while back but I don't think they ever got an answer. Was that guess correct?
