I'm upset.
Bob Gibson playing his old Bozo 12-string in the late 1960s would be *somewhat* traditional...
...and hey, I think I've got one of Rev. Gary Davis...:
Man, do I *love* Bozo's work... |
Nice photo Larry! Bozo's were rather interesting 12's and he had that "thick top" down. Holzapfels were around 3/16" thick!
There used to be a COLOR vid of Leadbelly standing on a trailer bed playing "Green Corn" on uTube, but that's gone too. That one really pi**es me off as he was soooo good and shows his shuffle. Dave did his version of the shuffle, but his was a little different.
