SATURDAY MORNING BLUES 2 ...Goin' Up Country?....

Posted about 3 years ago


Henry Thomas is another name on the list of true innovators/enigmas. He made about 25 or so recordings in the mid to late 1920's & diappeared from sight forever, lost in the foggy past. Bob Dylan covered (adapted) "Honey Won't You Give Me One More Chance" from Henry Thomas. And of course Canned Heat.......but.

When he finally did reappear in the Eighties no one could believe that voice could come from one so young looking

    Such a distinctive melody...never knew it came from that far back; course, if you're gonna associate with extraterresials, I guess anythings possible...

    Interesting instrumentation for sure, and a fairly solid blues melody.

    Wonder whatever did happen to him?  Abducted by Aliens?

    @Baudolino....Current theories hold that he was abducted by Elvis Presley's time traveling ghost & is still being held at Judge Crater's place.
