There is a new Texas Historical Marker for Henry Thomas along US 80, on the Upshur/Wood County Line just outside of Big Sandy: The post-Reconstruction period in the South saw many African Americans moving in search of better economic opportunities. Many became traveling musicians or itinerant songsters who performed a variety of genres on street corners to passing audiences. One such performer was Henry "Ragtime Texas" Thomas. He was born in 1874 to sharecroppers on a farm in Big Sandy. His hometown, originally referred to as Big Sandy Switch, originated along the Texas & Pacific Railroad. Henry used the railroad to escape the life of farm work around 1890 to begin his musical career.<p> Thomas rode along the Texas & Pacific and Missouri-Kansas-Texas (Katy) rail lines and made a living singing and playing the quills, a type of American panpipe. He later taught himself guitar and could play both instruments simultaneously. His song tempos often mimicked the beat and sound of a train moving along a track, while quills could imitate a train whistle, reflecting the railroad's influence in his music. His musical pacing reflected dance hall tunes of the period, earning Thomas the nickname "Ragtime Texas" from listeners who heard similarities between him and ragtime music. <p> From 1927 to 1929, Thomas recorded 23 songs for Vocalion Records. Drawing from his travels, Thomas incorporated the train itinerary and the vagabond lifestyle in songs like "Railroadin' Some" and "When the Train Comes Along." Other songs, like "Cottonfield Blues" and "Fishing Blues," provided a compelling bridge between the African American songster styles of the 19th century and the development of the blues genre early in the 20th century[.] Details of Thomas' later career and life remain a mystery, but his influence on music and bands has become his legacy.

I can hear SRV and T-Bone Walker with Jimmy Page. 😃

There's nothing like the original masters truly one of the greats!!!!!!!!

Un maestro lo mejor de lo mejor 🇦🇷

Jesus. I tried to delete you 3 times! I surrender

That's some phrasing.

That was fantastic.

Salut, serait-il possible de faire des quantités moindres de levain (jours 6 et 7) pour éviter de jeter une impotante partie de levain à chaque rafraîchi ? Un grand merci pour votre vidéo qui me permet enfin, de réussir un pain goûteux et beau à chaque fois. Merci 👍

This is Take One of "Downtown Blues". Take 2 is a bit faster and is in general a better performance than this one. Seek it out.

Ain't going to marry, neither settle down I'm going to stay right here till they tear this barrelhouse down And I love you babe and I tell the world I do And I love you baby, tell the world I do I don't love nobody whole round world but you Ain't no use of weeping, ain't no need of crying Ain't no use of weeping, ain't no need of crying For you've got a home just long as I got mine Is you ever been lucky, now, woke up cold in hand? Is you ever been lucky, woke up cold in hand? I would call that now nothing but a monkey-man And I love you baby, you so nice and brown And I love you baby, you so nice and brown 'Cause you put it up solid, so it won't come down Did you get that letter, now, mailed in your back yard? Did you get that letter, now, mailed in your back yard? It's a sad word to say, but the best of friend have to part

Does anyone on UA-cam do a cover of this ?

Dan Sane.

This is the Real Historical Blues!

Seems One of the Earliest Recorded Blues Men ,Very Good Technique!

So good! Anyone know what year this was recorded?

The Frank Stokes card gets the cover of the "R. Crumb's Heroes of Blues, Jazz, and Country" book..

One of the very greatest blues guitar duets ever recorded, especially in the delta style. Does anyone know who the second guitarist is? It sounds like Willie Brown to me. (PS -- if you like this, check out Moon Goin Down by Charley Patton, backed up by Willie Brown.)

I LOVE THIS ❤ SONG . BLACK MUSIC IS REAL .

Had a CD w this on for decades. The roots of rock. And 1927. Thank God someone preserved this.

Henry got a letter, said his mother was dead Put his children on a passenger train He gonna ride the blind, lordy He gonna ride the blind Henry looked down, railroad track, spied the steel-drivin' coming down "'Fore I let that steel-drive beat me down, Die with the hammer in my hand Lord, I'll die with the hammer in my hand." Henry went on the mountain top, give his horn a blow Last words the captain said, "John Henry was a natural man. John Henry was a natural man." Henry had a woman, dress she wore was red Run on down that railroad track Goin' where John Henry fell dead "Yes, I'm goin' where John Henry fell dead." Henry had a baby boy, hold him in his palm of his hand Last words that poor boy said, "I'm gonna learn to be a steel-drivin' man. Yes I'll learn to be a steel-drivin' man."
