"As Tom Darby Was my Uncle, there is no doubt that he wrote the lyrics to Columbus Stockade Blues and Birmingham Jail....Neither he nor Jimmy Tarleton wrote the Score as that already existed, at the time." -Scott Whitley
I just happened upon this because of some research I was doing. I can tell you exactly who penned the lyrics for this song, The first group to record this was (Tom) Darby and (Jimmy) Tarlton in 1927. Jimmy Tarlton was my Great-uncle born in Chesterfield Co., SC. One of the fathers of the blues. He is also the first to be recorded using a steel slide. Everyone else at the time was using glass.
I am a South Carolina resident that was let go from my job after 16 yrs. I am a 45 yr. old white male, Navy veteran & American Legion member. I am a hard worker & I don't believe in sitting on my rear collecting a check. If anyone can aid in my quest, I would be greatful. Either reply or call 864-554-0517 or 864-445-8545. Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks.
