Those are some great pictures, Lindy!


And that's a cool article too. I was not aware that Tommy Johnson had any living relatives.

I seem to remember he turns up on Dr. David Evans' compilation of the late 60s called "Going Up The Country" which came out on the British Decca label.  It may have been reissued on CD, but I don't know about that.

Whoops, I haven't seen this thread in a long time. Sorry if I gave anyone the wrong impression, but those are not my pictures, I was just told by the photographer where I could find them.
