Something is better than nothing. Doin' anything for a man, there's investments involved, there's time and production. It's better to give him ten bucks and get a record out than to never record the cat - Brownie McGhee
In concert with the Broonzy biography Discussion, here are two Big Bill songs I threw down on my I-phone at the spur of the moment, hence the missing verses
Willy Mae art by Romare Bearden
Just a Dream art by Henri Rousseau (sleeping Gypsy)

My loathings are simple: stupidity, oppression, crime, cruelty, soft music. Vladimir Nabokov (1899 - 1977)
I especially like that "Willie Mae", Phil, and very much admire the way your singing calls all the shots in terms of your phrasing. That is really cool. All best, Johnm
Really enjoyed both songs, mightily impressed by the sound quality you get from an (apparently) simple set up - but of course the playing and singing had to be of good quality first to achieve this, and it was! Thanks for posting them!
