I manged to get Charlie Poole's boxed set and noticed on at least one
of the 4 CD's in the set that there would be a recording of a tune as
it would be played in the era by the city folks, then there would be
Poole's version.  So this goes along with what the author of the
Linthead Stop was on about from what the reviewers, etc. say.  I
surely love the old stuff, have to pay nearly twice the amount for
every CD I buy due to the current value of the Australian dollar so I
don't get to buy nearly as much of these old recordings as I want to.
The Charlie Poole set was both fun and instructive here.
 I suppose in our times we look to the past and try to bring it back
but in those days, they were looking  at the now to some degree and
changing it to their style.  Something interesting to ponder.  How to
use the style on current tunes.  Hum I just wonder how someone would
or could do anything to country up or trick up with bluegrass
licks .... a rapper tune?? <G>
