Finger picking and slide on a 12-string! Late-'20s. Contains the great line: I drunk so much whiskey I staggers in my sleep!

And one of my favourite blues artists, Blind Boy Fuller. Rory Gallagher covered this one.



And here he plays in the Piedmont style, with the superb turnaround chords in the second half of each verse. Like many other blues songs of the period, a heavy double-entendre song.

Piano blues from Cripple Clarence Lofton. This guy had a deformed foot, hence his blues name. Believe it or not, he started his career in show business as a tap dancer!
