Every so often you come across some busker or street musician who is just too good for the street alone. I shot this footage a few months ago and posted it on Youtube so if you haven’t seen it here’s your chance.
And while I’m at it here’s a lady doing

If your looking for video of Blues singers or Prison Work Song or Appalachian or anything of that sort there is an excellent web site that I cannot recommend highly enough. I have a link to such a site and I notice that no one has clicked on it since I first started this blog. So for the best , the very best movies (archive) on everything folk and blues just look in the side bar and click on the link that says , Folkstreams. You will find it in my Blogroll on the right on this blog. Apart from music there are also films on American culture , archive stuff that is nothing short of brilliant. You’ll find films featuring Alan Lomax and such people so if it’s Sonny Terry or stuff like that just click on the link. Or if your a bit lazy just click HERE. You’ll find archive films such as Appalachian Journey where you can see and hear real Appalachian music and people like Frank Proffit’s son singing ‘Tom Dooley” which was written by his father… wonderful stuff.
