"Brakeman's Blues" (Jimmie Rodgers) - 1928 - Day 94

???????? 'Let's do a song each night while we can' ???? ????
Day 94
- wanted to do a Singing Brakeman's tune for a long time here.. So, here is a first of some more to come along the way ???? Talking about a LEGEND ???? when hé died as a young man of TBC, there where thousands of people along the railroadtracks all the way from New York to his hometown Meridian in Mississippi.. Greg Brown did a song on that..
Lots of people covered his work..
Thanks for watching.

Be safe ????

The only schedule on this series is that there is none. Just a different song every day, that's all there is to it. Some will suck, some will be quite okay; and all 'verdicts' in between, too. So, it's finished songs and old demos i (co)wrote to various songs i love or just like to pick.. Just wondering how many there will be one day ????????
