One of Henry Thomas' most renowned recording which was covered to great acclaim in the 1960's by Blues Rock band Canned Heat. Henry Thomas was more a Songster than a Blues musician who played his own reworks of traditionals and standards alike with the unique touch of the Quills which he plays along with the Guitar in a style which appears to be completely individual for Thomas as a Musician. Lyrics from Weeniepedia Bull Doze Blues - Henry Thomas I'm going away, babe, and it won't be long I'm going away and it won't be long I'm going away and it won't be long Just as sure as that train leaves out of that Mobile yard Just as sure as that train leaves out of that Mobile yard Just as sure as that train leaves out of that Mobile yard Come shake your hand, tell your papa goodbye Come shake your hand, tell your papa goodbye Come shake your hand, tell your papa goodbye I'm going back to Tennessee I'm going back to Memphis, Tennessee I'm going back, Memphis, Tennessee I'm going where I never get bulldozed I'm going where I never get the bulldoze I'm going where I never get bulldozed If you don't believe I'm sinking, look what a hole I'm in If you don't believe I'm sinking, look what a hole I'm in If you don't believe I'm sinking, look what a fool I've been. Oh, my babe, take me back. How in the world, Lord, take me back.. + Informações

"John Henry", Henry Thomas' version of an old American folk ballad, was recorded for Vocalion Records in the late 20s. Here he accompanies himself with guitar and quills, an African American equivalent of panpipes. Thomas himself was born in Big Sandy, Texas around 1874 and lived the life of an itinerant songster before recording twenty-three sides for Vocalion between 1927 and 1929. Very little else is known of his life including his date of death, which very much adds to the mystique of his music.. + Informações

Fishin' Blues_No Copyright Infringement Intended Henry Thomas (1874-1950s?[1]) was an American pre-World War II country blues singer, songster and musician. He was often billed as "Ragtime Texas". Thomas was born in Big Sandy, Texas. He began his musical career as an itinerant songster and recorded twenty-three sides for Vocalion Records between 1927 and 1929. Thomas accompanied himself on guitar and on quills, a folk instrument fabricated from cane reeds, and would play both instruments and provide vocals for the same song. The instrument is similar in sound to the zampona, used by musicians in Peru and Bolivia. His springy guitar-playing, probably inspired by banjo-picking styles, implies that he was used to performing for dances.[2] His legacy has been sustained by his songs which were later covered by musicians after the folk music revival. "Fishin' Blues" was covered by Taj Mahal and The Lovin' Spoonful. "Bull Doze Blues" was recorded by Canned Heat, retitled "Goin' Up The Country". Here Thomas's melody on quills was reproduced note for note by flautist Jim Horn. "Don't Ease Me In" was covered by the Grateful Dead on their album Go to Heaven; and "Honey Won't You Allow Me One More Chance" was covered by Bob Dylan (as "Honey Just Allow Me One More Chance") on The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. Thomas's vintage recording of "Don't Ease Me In" is included on the compilation album The Music Never Stopped: Roots of the Grateful Dead.
