| I Got A 10 Pound Hammer | 3 |
Rain Rain Rain. It’s been like five days since I’ve seen the sun around here. I hope Columbus Day (observed) went over well for everyone – I put up a wiki (prewarblues.org/wiki) but I have no idea how to use it. Registration works -so tear it up and let me know what’s up the inside.
Today’s track is from Mose Andrews a pre-delta Mississippi blues singer who reminds me a lot of Oscar Woods and Buddy Moss. He has that same sloppy drunk blues style of guitar playing and almost steam of conscious lyrics that are so infectious. I only two tracks by him, but I seem to remember some field recordings by him though I couldn’t find anything about that today. The song itself has some pretty brutal lyrics “I got a 10 pound hammer mama, can’t you hear me talkin’ pretty mama” I glad it never resolves itself in the literal violent manner – the sexual manner it does take – isn’t less brutal. It’s a very odd and off-putting song, though I keep coming back to it for some reason.
