Leon Redbone - have a listen

Leon Redbone - Wikipedia

Not for many but what a great voice and, when he's playing, guitar style. Blues/Jazz/ Tin Pan Alley stuff from early 20th century but performing through 1970's, 80's and 90's.

Tremendous version of Blind Boy Fuller's Step It Up and Go for example.

Take a listen. (Quite a lot of his stuff on You Tube music.)

Leon was amazing, and I love all that old timey Tin Pan Alley stuff. A proper entertainer.

Love his version of “please don’t talk about me when I’m gone “, also works well on a 3 string cigarbox @chickenbonejohn ;
