Blues harmonica has never sounded sweeter riding a lonely Mississippi train line along side Jaybird Coleman’s amazing voice. This song is as powerful today as it was when it was recorded, mono, in 1928. Still rough, scratchy and completely engaging.

Listen to the quality of sorrow in that harmonica. A real blues player cannot cheat the feeling of grief on any topic. It comes from within. When the river runs dry on land and in the heart, the music must replenish the soul for hope to be replenished. I’m proud to honor another mp3 by Jaybird Coleman.
