is this the guy wc handy saw at the train station near parchman? really great integration of slide and fingers, collins must have put in a lot of hours to be the best of his day, real innovation.
Unlikely, as Collins would have been only 16 in 1903 which didnt match Handys description of the player. As Collins song is totally different to Handys, it possibly derived from the song Handy heard.
Doesn't sound a bit like Handy's "Yellow Dog Blues".
