Too bad they couldn't stick with the rolling, easy tempo they started with. By the time it ends, they're all on crystal meth. . .

It must have cost a fortune in chrome spray paint to get all those guitanjo thingies looking the same. The guy on the right doesn't even know how to hold it right!! Seriously, top marks for this performance. As I've said to Stewart many times, you don't need to be a lover of the genre to recognise talent. And you guys seem to have so much fun... Get more of your stuff uploaded. If you need someone to HD video you, let me know.

Yes, it's true. I have been called that on more than one occasion, oddly enough!

Great stuff. The crazy washboard player has the look of a stunned mullet at times, which just adds to the joy of it all!

This is a wonderful version of the song which was originally played by the great Jim Jackson (1884-1937).
AMG list the composer as Johnny Parth who was the owner of Document Records and re-released a lot of these gems however, I find it very hard to believe he was the composer considering he would only have been seven years old when Jim Jackson died as he wasn't born until 1930.
