    you are DISGUSTING. if that's the only thing that you can put out on the internet about Shakey Jake, then I suggest that you SHUT THE FUCK UP. Jake was a wonderful human being who saw the good in everyone. too bad you are too FUCKING IGNORANT TO REALIZE THAT!!!!!!

    The videos about Shakey Jake brought tears to my eyes. I used to greet him almost daily while walking to and from school in Saginaw, Michigan where I grew up. My mother said he had been in Saginaw with a guitar for decades. He stopped one day a talked to him and found out that he knew my parents...I was a student in Ann Arbor in the late sixties at the time. What a character and always pleasant to approach. Now I know what happened to him. Rest in peace Jake.

    Thanks for posting. This brings back good memories of Jake, one of the people I've treasured. I even named my 32-foot sailboat after him!

    You don't even need one string to play the blues. Get over yourself.

    I remember Jake back in the early 1970's when he lived in Saginaw, Michigan. He used to hang out by the Court street bridge with his guitar
