Snooks Eaglin Country Boy In New Orleans
Label: Arhoolie Released : 2009 Format : Mp3@320 This is a world away from Eaglin's Black Top releases, as these recordings are from the late 1950s when he was working as a street musician. Eaglin plays six - and twelve-string guitars, washboard, and tom toms, and is accompanied by Lucius Bridges (washboard) and Percy Randolph (harmonica, washboard on several cuts). Since street performers thrive on tips and requests, these twenty - three tracks present a fairly broad repertoire. It's mainly blues, but also gospel, folk, harmonica `train' tunes, percussion workouts, and even a Caribbean lilt on a couple of songs. Recommended both as a delightful audio document of an earlier time and a record of the pre-electric guitar virtuosity of Fird 'Snooks' Eaglin. Tracklist : 01.
