11/21/2008 03:14 PM Bugahoma Blues by The Balckbirds Of Paradise An African American Jazz band from Montgomery Alabama. In the 1920's, that was a testament to the pure dedication of musicians. Philmore Hall, the lead trumpet player, was also the teacher of the famous Dizzie Gillespie. A few members of this ensemble were also part of the Tuskeegee Institute nearby. blues 11/21/2008 03:14 PM Undertaker Blues by Buster Johnson Buster Johnson sings about something that no one really wants to think about. He is also someone that hardly anyone knows about. Well PD4U cares and feels proud to have Buster on our playlist of great old time blues singers. Everyone will eventually have tos sing a song about the undertaker...why not listen to Buster's version! blues 11/21/2008 03:14 PM They Aint Walking No More by Bessie Jackson (Lucille Bogan) There aint no beatin' around the bush with this tune! She is tellin' you exactly what is on her mind in this amazingly blunt and truthful testament to a particular type of vocation. blues 11/21/2008 03:14 PM Levee blues by Bessie Jackson (Lucille Bogan) Here is another 1927 classic from the archives. Her voice rings out her thoughts about going down to the Levee with that lonesome feeling as the piano walks you back home again. This old gritty recording takes you right there... blues 11/21/2008 03:14 PM Sweet Petunia by Bessie Jackson (Lucille Bogan) Bessie Jackson was a pseudonym for Lucille Bogan, a classic female blues artist from the '20s and '30s. This 1927 recording made her famous and raised a few eyebrows amongst her listening audience. Lyrical content was not as 'randy' as it is today and songs like this were considered to be lyrically perverse. Judge for yourself... blues
