  • From the Too Late, Too Late: More Newly Discovered Titles And Alternate Takes Volume 2 (1897-1935)...Document Records DOCD-5216
    Recorded June 14, 1929, in Richmond, Indiana; Charley Patton, vocal and guitar; probably Buddy Boy Hawkins, second vocal...Originally issued on PM 12883 (78 RPM)
    Charley Patton's Paramount 12883 ("Lord I'm Discouraged" and "I'm Goin' Home") dates from his first recording session in 1929. Both sides of this 78 were reissued on DOCD-5009, but for this anthology a 78 with far superiour sound quaility was available. Patton's last four tracks on this first session were all religious: PM 12799 was issued as by Elder J. J. Hadley, but the present 78 appeared under Patton's own name, in spite of the religious nature of the songs. Both songs are in Open G. "I'm Going Home," was also recorded by Blind Willie Johnson and Lonnie McIntorsh as "Take Your/A Stand." Patton had also sung part of this spiritual earlier in his "Prayer Of Death - Part 1. In "I'm Goin' Home," as in several songs of his first session, a second male voice is to be heard. This may well be Walter "Buddy Boy" Hawkins who had travelled with Patton in the train from Jackson, Mississippi to Richmond, Indiana, a journey of 750 miles. ~ Guido van Rijn, October 28, 1993 (from the liner notes)

    Is this maybe one of the first protest songs? Damn, right you have a right, man. Geesh, this guy's voice reminds me of a bull frog singing, but never has a bull frog sounded so damned appealing, or righteous. Charley Patton was one singing man.

    What a shame the Richmond Indiana authorities tore down the old Gennett records factory where so many master musicians from all branches of American music came to record.

      Thanks for letting me know. I no longer get to Richmond and have yet to see it. But, if and when I do, I'll enjoy knowing that the legacy of all those wonderful musicians lives on.

      What would you expect from carpetbaggers and their treatment of history in general? Race irrelevant, their actions in our times reflect how much they ever cared for tradition, culture, and its amazing artforms. Irreplaceable works of the greatest skill and preserving them meant nothing, the political angle is merely their bullshit ticket to destroy whatever they please from history and rewrite it for the ignorant.

      GWL Good ear. I've listened to this song a lot and never noticed that. A lot of his recordings were at sessions in which he took along some musical associates who did their own individual recordings: Son House, Willie Brown, Henry Sims. There was also a woman whose name escapes me. All these people were in the same room when they recorded or in the vicinity of the recording device. Its easy to imagine one of them taking up the song in the background.

      This is from his first session in Richmond on 6/14/1929. He wasn't yet married to Bertha, and Calt and Wardlow say he only took the trip with Buddy Boy Hawkins. So maybe that's who it is. But it's surely not House, Brown, Sims, or Lee.
