Cigar Box Slide - Shake 'Em On Down by Samantha Fish

[Shadowfax]

Refreshing to see young people keeping up with traditional music as well as being highly talented....and cute!

Front row, just left of center appears to be the ideal listening position.

Oh? I missed that

I guess if I had posted a sleepy singer-songwriter the crowd would have been all over it opcorn:opcorn:

If you want to hear that song kicked up a bit, I suggest you listen to Too Slim And The Taildraggers do that song on their album, "El Rauncho Grundge".

Just did, pretty good version.

You guys/ladies know the history of that song, right? Bukka White is credited with writing it (though, with the old blues stuff, lot's of songs seemed to be floating around that were first recorded by, and then identified with, one person). He was BB King's cousin, and if memory serves, gave BB his first guitar. He was also one of the early 'rediscovered' blues guys whose knowledge, once tapped by the "blues cult" of the early '60s, helped lead to finding other famous bluesmen from the Delta. Zep's "Hat's Off" is basically a clone of "Shake 'em on Down" and as far as I know, had little to do with Roy Harper, who is a magnificently quirky artist.

I enjoyed watching that skirt ride up more than the song.

and not a drop of ink on that nubile body. Now that's refreshing. But I digress.

I kept on expecting her to say, 'Hey Bo Diddley'.
