The South Memphis String Band is a bit traditional and a bit unorthodox in their approach to country bluegrass and blues. Here’s their version of “Jesse James.”
“Jesse James” was first recorded by Bascom Lamar Lundsford in 1924. He played and promoted traditional Appalachian folk music and styles from the previous century.
The Allman Brothers‘ version of “One Way Out,” recorded live on 2 November 1972 in Hempstead, New York:
“Ain’t but one way out baby,
Lord I just can’t go out the door;
Ain’t but one way out baby, and
Lord I just can’t go out the door;
‘Cause there’s a man down there,
might be your man I don’t know.”
Here’s a brief history of the song with links to earlier recordings.
Have a great weekend, folks. More fun is on the way.
