Jerry The Junker-------Clarence Williams And His Washboard band

Reefer Song-------Fats Waller (Yes. That Fats Waller)

Save The Roach For Me-----Buck Washington

COCAINE BILL AND MORPHINE SUE----(were strolling down the avenue. Honey have a sniff have a sniff on me.......) many many artists, originally from the very early part of the last century, or possibly the 19th century when the first cocaine wave hit this country.

I found a few of these busted records at my sister's house, which really pissed me off. I think a lot of them are available on CD's. Late add Emailer T Jackson says most are available at Amazon. Warning: most of them are just awful. You have to be a hard core blues fan to like most of them, and the sort of famous "Harry the Hipster" was a no talent. I left out Slim Galliard (Cement Mixer), Lord BlearsBuckley, the really great Louis Jordan, and lots of others including the dopester of all time: Roselle Gayle (sic), the first Cheech and Chong. Another late add More emails than I've ever received complete with links to Amazon. Here's a start that will link you like crazy. There's copulating blues, "viper" blues, and just plain early low down stuff. The rap of the early part of the 20th century. Another email link from John T. If you have Real Audio updated you can hear some of this stuff.
