Fifty States: West Virginia



Louis Jordan: Salt Pork, West Virginia

[purchase]

Credit goes to a friend of mine who just forwarded this song to me. What a beauty it is!  This is music for sitting out on my porch on a hot Monday night in late June.  I'm not really familiar with Louis Jordan's music, but his vocal delivery reminds me a little of Leadbelly.  Really excellent stuff.
