I heard this on the radio yesterday, quite gnarly.

Triple Trebles by Jimmy Dawkins

Started the Mack McCormack book on Robert Johnson, so I'll probably be looking up some things that'll end up here.

Like, first off, there was a parenthetical mention of the incredibly-named bluesman Peanut The Kidnapper, who I'd somehow never heard of before.

You got me there, I don't think I've heard of Peanut the Kidnapper either.

that totally sounds like a rapper from Texas or the Southeast. the more things change...

For a guy that seems to have recorded a lot, I'm not very familiar with Peetie Wheatstraw. (Maybe I was buying the wrong compilations back in the day? I can only find one track in my collection.)

And in the "Great Blues Names Sweepstakes", Wikipedia says this track was recorded "in a duet with an artist called Neckbones," who I want to know more about.

Good stuff! Yep, I guess Peetie Wheatstraw was really popular in the '30s.

One of my favorite blues names: "Dad" Tracy

So, is embedding a thing of the past?

For me it is.

I can't see embedded vids. It may have something to do with my browser, Flash, the forum software or some combination thereof?
