Early version of Blue Prairie. I don't know the date, but i'm guessing early 1930's. If anyone knows the date of this version let me know. thanks

  • Thank you so much for posting this version of Blue Prairie. It's far superior to the 1959 version. This is the best version I've ever heard - evocative and haunting, and with a distinct edge of the hard times of the 1930s .

  • Thats the original Decca 5248 recorded July 3, 1936 w.

    Bob Nolan singing the lead part & Tim Spencer & Len

    Slye (Roy Rogers) rounding out the trio. Hugh Farr on

    the fiddle & his brother Karl on guitar. Len slye played

    2nd guitar

see all

  • @clintbradley The next best thing you can do is play this along with others with the fire pit burning some pinon and a beer in your hand.

    The bands and voices of the past come a little bit more back to life that way.

  • @konotoso I totally agree.

  • This is pure magic! I am in total heaven listening to it. The warmth of their harmonies and the delivery is second to none. Lord how I would have loved to sit in with this band for a jam. Great post! more plaese more!

  • I actually like the sons of the san joaquin version far better

  • This sounds like the original trio, so it must be between 1934 and 1936.
