I think I saw some old man and he was real good on the guitar, on the chords, and he didn't sing that good, just play something like that, and I copied some of that and put the words to it. And Blind Blake used to have something kinda in that style. He would play in that style and I thought he was a real good guitar player. Nice chords. Played finger style. - Jesse Babyface Thomas explains how he wrote Blue Goose Blues, interview in Shreveport, La., ca. 1989

I don't want to cheat by looking at the list in Weeniepedia--what's the one other than "Depression Gone From Me Blues", Chris?Cherry Hill Blues, backing up Irene Scruggs. Thanks for the reminder, Chris. And while I'm here, one to add to the list for E position, standard tuning:
* Charley Jordan All best, Johnm Little Hat Jones had a very distinctive style playing in E standard, and recorded it over and over again.
Alex Hi all,
* Willie Trice He kind of specialized in playing in E position in standard tuning, and played a bunch of songs in that position that absolutely nobody else did, like "Diddy Wa Diddy". All best, Johnm
