A buddy of mine is always trying to sell me on Frank Crumit. I dunno. He likes those kinds of vocalists, being particularly keen on Irving Kaufman, Arthur Fields, Billy Jones, and the like.
I prefer the dames. Especially of the more hotsy-totsy variety. Marion Harris, Jane Green, Vaughn De Leath. Maybe Frances Williams and Helen Rowland, getting into the more modern era. Gotta have a bit of that jazz thing going.

I remember my dad singing that song (I'm An Old Cowhand) back in the 60s. I never knew where it came from.
Thanks for posting that.

I never knew it was so morbid:
I never knew it was so morbid:
quote:
"Waltzing Matilda" is a song developed in the Australian style of poetry and folk music called a bush ballad. It has been described as the country's "unofficial national anthem".
The title was Australian slang for travelling on foot, by walking (waltzing) with one's belongings in a "matilda" (swag) slung over one's back,
The song narrates the story of a swagman (itinerant worker) boiling a billy at a bush camp and capturing a stray jumbuck (sheep) to eat. When the jumbuck's owner, a squatter (grazier), and three troopers (mounted policemen) pursue the swagman for theft, he declares "You'll never catch me alive!" and commits suicide by drowning himself in a nearby billabong (watering hole), after which his ghost haunts the site.

This is a brilliant thread. Stupid of me to have missed it so far.
Unfortunately around half the YouTube links have gone away. But so far this is my favorite. Perfect.
Henry Thomas - "Bulldoze Blues" (1927)
Canned Heat - "Going Up The Country" (1968)
