A medley of John Henry themes:

Wow - but Bessie Smith spills fire and fury in Hateful Blues on Columbia Record 14023D. Talk about hymns of hate - Bessie sure is a him-hater on this record. The way she tells what she is going to do with her "butcher" will make trifling fellows catch express trains going at 60 miles an hour. The music is full of hate too. You can almost see hate drip from the piano keys. Every note is a half-note. No quarter for anyone - Chicago defender ad, July 1924

I fixed that link if you don't mind. Some nice John Henry explorations you got there. Thanks for posting. Steve W
Nice playing; reminded me of John Fahey's JH Variations, especially at the beginning few minutes, from my first Fahey album long, long ago. Thanks.
