    while I was loitering on youtube

    After a brush with the jazzers I found myself looking for Blind Eddie Dunn's Gin Bottle Four, and in the process found this fine old bit of Cajun singing from Cleoma Falcon.

    J'ai passé devant ta porte. (I walked past your door)J'ai crié "bye-bye" la belle.(I cried, "goodby, my beautiful girl."'Y a personne qu'à pas répondu (And n...

    John,
    I hope you weren't wearing a hooded top over on yo'toob. Wasn't poor old Cleoma just wonderful.
    You'll have heard this classic before, I'm sure.

      I think that fine tune turned up somewhere else too, Paul!

      Hadn't made the connection - I'll assume the middle name threw me. What a great voice.
      ....and naw! these are the only hoodies hangin' about round these parts.

      Anyway CDJ's link had led me to Blind Eddie Dunn who was Eddie Lang playing here with Lonnie Johnson ( who's also in the BEDGB4) - terrific stuff, I thought.

        Only the other day I slipped in a batch of tracks by Lonnie Johnson onto my future son-in-law's iPod.

        They have been enthusiastically received - without young S-i-L having a clue who he was listening to, or from what era.
        That says something to me about the need for exposure to a wider range of music...and that people with open ears tend to hear more.

          I showed my 19 year old some of the Human Planet prom the other evening, Global - he was amazed by Ayarkhaan mentioning some techno 'wizard' who makes sounds just like that, but not accompanied only by some khomuses and vocals - he was slightly overwhelmed; but even more so by Khusugtun who he said were the best 'Overtone Singers' he had heard - says I've been trying to stuff Mongolian music down his throat for ages.
          Here was a previous favourite from one of Charlie G's compilations.
          Okna Tsahan Zam - Edjin DuunI spent 11 years of my life in Mongolia and this song is linked with so many memories :) didnt find it in youtube yet so i though...

            Back to Lonnie Johnson and here's Sonny Boy introducing him sometime in the early 60s. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8fyb...eature=related
            ....and while we're there here's a spot of Sonny Boy keeping it to himself!

                      It was a close run thing, John, but parts of me still prefer the earlier incarnation.
