@raptoreagle Blues Yodel #9 ("Standin' On The Corner"). It's in there.
-
@lookagain77 - Or they could have been too poor .
-
@cw1310 'Blue Yodel No 9'. Found with a 20 second search.
-
I think phantomvibrationsX is high on something, or just confused. I searched the internet and found nothing to indicate that Jimmy Rogers, the singing brakeman had any black ancestry.
-
@phantomvibrationsX Was he half black? Apparently it's difficult to find pictures of his parents.

@cw1310 STANDIN ON THE CORNER It was accepted procedure for Jimmie Rodgers and others who appeared somewhat white--to record black songs so that they could be sold to the white audience and all would profit...Mostly Peer..Although Rodgers did have some associations with whites--they were few and far between till the Bristol Sessions.. A quick check of history will find the father of country music and jazz--was black--not white.. His signed closeup speaks for itself.

-
