The colored folks been singing it and playing it just like I'm doing now, man, for more years than I know. They played it like that in the shanties and in their juke joints, and nobody paid it no mind 'til I goosed it up. I got it from them. Down in Tupelo, Mississippi, I used to hear old Arthur Crudup bang his box the way I do now, and I said if I ever got to the place where I could feel all old Arthur felt, I'd be a music man like nobody ever saw - Elvis Presley, 1956, Last Train to Memphis

Hi Darren,
I couldn't agree with you more about how cool "Don't Put That Thing On Me" is.  Here's a link to a post that talks about it:  http://weeniecampbell.com/yabbse/index.php?amp;Itemid=60&topic=2044.msg17661#msg17661
All best,
Johnm

After getting into the Delta blues via the usual suspects (RJ, Muddy) and also via Stefan Grossman's tuition DVD's, I've decided to go to the source and have just received a two CD Charlie Patton collection, "Screaming and Hollering..."

First listen in the car today sounds very promising (Mrs R&D is not a huge fan of playing blues on the home stereo  :(  )

Amazing how "Frankie and Albert" can sound so different to the MJH version and yet immediately recognisable - presume Patton did his before MJH?

John Hurt's "Frankie" was recorded on February 14, 1928.  Patton's "Frankie And Albert" was waxed sometime in or around October of 1929, so almost a year and a half later.  The song had been around for several decades before these recordings were made.

Featuring strong transfers from the original 78's and a light touch of Cedar, this sadly out-of-print French release perfectly compliments Yazoo's two Big Bill Broonzy discs. Other releases in Black & Blue's Blues For Ever series include Sleepy John Estes, Kokomo Arnold, Jazz Gillum, Washboard Sam and Sonny Boy Williamson. A few of these can still be purchased new through http://www.cdandlp.com.
