Big Bill Broonzy Shuffle Rag

Big Bill recorded this piece more than once so some of these variations may be unfamiliar but they came from Big Bill's guitar. There's a post on You Tube incorrectly called 'See See Rider' which this is loosely copied from. Bill's sound is confusing though, I just don't know how he gets it?

Love it! This in one of my favorite Big Bill tunes. There are only a couple of versions of it on Youtube that really speak to me - yours is one. Well done!

Bazjax....I'm certainly no academic, don't need to be to see that this stands on it's own two legs. Sounds like music, and no doubt that was Big Bill's goal as well. Nice work.

Great job. I think your closer to "bill's sound" than you know. Either way I wouldn't worry about trying to replicate it too closely... no need - your sound is real good.

Keep it up!
