Cocaine Blues

[j000013]

keef version it´s the proper one

[MrWilde71]

cool song. not sure R.L. and EDDIE TAYLOR would approve

[dragonfitter]

trouble with coke is its so moorish

[vili1]

wow,nice song. i believe this was originally recorded in1920´s, when after the ww1 cocaine use was rapidly increasing. you could have a bottle of liquid cocaine from a doctor! not anymore boys,not anymore..

[pierofocaccia]

this version is basically identical to the one done by John Martyn

[HeartOnTheStreet]

hi man where did you get this song? by the way i want tab if you know, Thanks!

[HeartOnTheStreet]

tab?

[cassiusjones49]

someone please send me the chords for this song i would so love to learn it

[JIOREO]

Did Eddie Taylor do a recording of this song? Curious as to why his pic is shown at the start.

[lazur1]

@JIOREO The photos seem to be random, perhaps just to affect an 'old-timey' vibe. Eddie didn't do this song, didn't play this style of blues, &, (unless he was the mellowest, most secretive user ever), didn't use cocaine.

[JIOREO]

@lazur1 Yes, you are right -probably didn't even know who Eddie was! I knew/played w/ him and we never played this song and cigs & coffee w/cream & sugar were his only 'vices'.

[mamatou1]

that s John Martyn

[lazur1]

@mamatou1 For comparison, check some of John's videos on youtube: This is most surely -not- Martyn...sounds nothing like him.

[sscalise03]

Why are so many of you relating this to pot?

This is only about cocaine, a big differance!!

[Pattywhack1987]

i love this song, it has sentimental value, was sung to me when i was a little girl, unknowing of the meaning at thé time, but still brings back great memories. why is there only 1.45 sec , i know there is more, can someone help? yes yes cocaine is bad for some, good for others, and pot the same. please , just need the whole song , would make me really happy, if someone could help:-)

[bobbybluz1]

Cocaine is God's proof that you have more money than sense. "The Devils Dandruff" and "Weasel Dust"...

[bobbybluz1]

Isn't this a retread of an old Dave Van Ronk song?

As a "professional pot-head" from the age of 17 to 53 I smoked more great weed than 20 average hard-core smokers. After retiring from it Life is MUCH better now. Sex, food and playing music are SO much better!

[torzilla22]

people who hate on stoners are the worst kind of people. i mean if you dont smoke thats cool, but to hate a pothead.. i mean how can you hate a pothead? they dont bother anybody and the worst thing they ever steal is my cookies/chips. anyways your point is really irrelevant cswinston. and you seem like a negative person. i think i know what would brighten your day up a bit! =D

[mudshark69]

@torzilla22

it's a lotta love in those words, T22. you on ma coffee list. nice going).

[dragonfitter]

@torzilla22 people hate stoners as non drug users view pot in the same way they view heroin they dont see any difference

[yaghti55]

to cswinston SHUT THE FUCK UP nobody gives a shit about cows in the first place. you can tell me a story about someone dying from real drugs and i still wouldnt care.

[jorgeandreartea]

pura MOTA putos

[kybluescat77]

At 1:28 is a pot plant....not coca...

[inthebluescrossroad]

i think he means that he would prefer pot hehe

[nickothompson]

Agreed... that was not good... and yes it's a pot plant, cocain can kill, pot cannot (no known deaths in 5000 years!)

[cswinston]

Not sure that's strictly true. According to High Times or one of those other equally stupid magazines printed for loafing stoner's there was a case of a cow that had managed to get into a field where ganja was being grown in mass quanties. Poor Daisy proceeded to eat her daily amount of what she thought was just grass and died as a result.

[karimoh1]

maybe youre right, you can die from ingesting weed if you make it the sole element of your diet for an extended period of time.

how is this relevant again?

[TheThroney]

@cswinston serves er' right for trespassing and nosing around where she aint welcome. ;) peace

[Applebee1979]

Pot can kill if dropped on ya head from a great height lol

[thebottlewasdusty]

its a sweet version but Townes Van Zandt does an unbelievable version. check it out

[pithiestflicks]

Nice version of this tune, but the video is what makes this version great....congratulations!

[Drengorath]
