Wikipedia's Picture of Leadbelly

Leadbelly with Accordeon


I like this photo of Leadbelly with an Accordeon. I found it on Wikipedia, which I reference a lot. I know that there are those who don't like Wikipedia, but I think it is a great source. And they have many entries that can be of interest to blues fans. Their article on The Blues is very comprehensive, and I think is a must read.

Please donate something to Wikipedia

I remembre buying an album in the late sixties were i found a song sung by Leadbelly with Woody Guthrie and Cisco Huston, and Leadbelly plays accordeon in it. I 'm not certain, but I think the song was Good Night Irenes, and it was recorded in 1949.

Hey, now here's one of your blogs that I don't think I've seen before. Glad to stumble upon it, Fitz! Thanks for the visit to my little place. Eventually I'll get it finished. And yes, great photo!
