American Traditional Post

Springsteen on "Old Dan Tucker"



Hangman...
1971, ten years old I go to my grandmothers house. Looking through her piano music I find Led Zeppelins song Gallows Pole (I knew Granmaw was a hippie anyway but this confirmed my suspicions about her), she made some kind of lame excuse about it being American Traditional Folk music... Bull-Puck! That woman Rocked and I knew it!

Lord Bless You Grandmaw. I still Love you.




Traditional "House of the rising sun"



My favorite version. I was only 3 years old but remember it like it was yesterday...

Eric Burdon...
