Waiting for Howlin’ Wolf’s “Smokestack Lightnin'” to appear
Ya learn something old every day. History can be interesting.
From a musical standpoint I kinda like the reggae version Colin Dussault does on his album Colin Dussault His Blues Project And Friends (old). I can’t find it on You Tube.
That’s not Raggae, I see now. Just saw his name and the song.
Yeah Dad I saw that one too, but it’s just another version, not nearly as good as the one I was looking for. I have it in my personal collection, but I searched seven ways to Sunday for the album cut, but couldn’t find it. I thought maybe he’s on iTunes (so that you could sample it), but I couldn’t find him there either. It is hard to describe because it’s a Blues reggae, not hard core reggae.
You’ve written nice post, I am gonna bookmark this page, thanks for info. I actually appreciate your own position and I will be sure to come back here. http://www.alkatalwar.com/
Wow, I had no idea this song was that old. Thanks Doc.
I hate to ask why he is called lead belly.
The artists that you highlighted over the last few days.
Do know if they wrote the words and music?
If my memory serves, he was given an early release from prison and or a pardon based on his value/contribution to music
My memory proved sound, he was both pardoned and got early release…at different times, he had an affinity for altercations involving knives.

Interesting it is that old.
Sounds more like Leadpussy
