Thanks Walter - I only know this song through Gary Primich's version, and the original artist not at all.

It seems that Model T also went by the name of Driftin' Slim

Great stuff, thanks for the heads up

That is some great Swamp Blues there Walter! Of course he being one of the earlier One Man Bands probably holds quite a bit of interest to you. LOL

@GamblersHand Actually this is a cover of a John Lee Williamson song and I imagine Gary knew the original.

He did some cool stuff as a 1 man band. He never made a full living at music from what I gather. He lived in Los angeles much of his life and the album Drifting Slim - somebody hoodoed the hodoo man by pete welding is a killer combo of his 1 man band and band sound and also has a great track where he tells a story about gasoline soaked snuff.
