"Ham 'an Eggs" by Leadbelly. Blues, Off The Record Fri Jul 11 with Sonny Boy Williamson III on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Morning all!

You can hear the intro riff here, on Mattie Delaney's Tommy Johnson cover (Big Road Blues), which Chuck Berry would later use on Johnny B Goode

Blind Lemon Jefferson also plays this riff on the intro to Black Snake Moan. I'm not sure where its ultimate source is!

..excellent, thank you for these musics ..

According to this podcast episode, the riff was first recorded as Bluin the Blues by Will Sweatman https://500songs.com/podcast/episode-67-johnny-b-goode-by-chuck-berry/

Thank you for listening!

Wow Weaver and Beasley great gtr picking!

Not Curley Weaver! Sylvester Weaver and Walter Beasley,

@ Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) I love how Guitar Shorty got that sob in his voice when singing "You Don't Treat Me Right ...

Key to the Highway!

Van Ronk is mixing two John Hurt records here (with his own spin on them) -- candy man and frankie

Dave Van Ronk was a real entertainer and a real character. We miss 'im!

The LP I was playing off of was apparently engineered by Rudy Van Gelder

..thanks for saving Amerika, I'll have a pigfoot with my bourbon, scotch, n beer Excelente shows of musics ..

Thanks all for listening!
