Cocaine Habit Blues

Another classic from the Memphis Jug Band, recorded originally around 1928/1930. I play guitar, tenor ukelele and my buddy Geoff Connor added a tuba beat for fun.

Glad you liked it Snoops! You'll have to get the kids playing it in the log music room! :-)

Great job. It's funny to see how many people love songs about drugs and drinking.

[HenfieldWill]

To be honest, it's the tune and overall feeling of the original I like - would have been just as good is he'd used "reading" instead of "cocaine"! Still, it's the old story - songs about sex'n drugs'n rock & roll... :-)
