Keith Alan 3-stringer, cigar box amp, Mojobone slide and... me doing vocals!!! Don't worry, the "vocals" only last @ 45 seconds. If you don't like it, blame Uncle John... IT'S HIS FAULT!

Good again, Clock.   Your acapella voice sounds quite a bit like mine.

Clock, I think I failed to read your notes below the video on my first time around.  

Good video a second time.   Don't know where you get all the film archive expertise.

I'm looking forward to the public TV Ken Burns documentary on the Dust Bowl years in November.
