Just put this up for fun. This is a fun style of music called swamp music. It originated in the Southern United States.



PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

Buddy, no free ride when you put up a video, for sure ... whazzis ? Hmmm, some drama here, what's the original? ... lookit up on YouTube ... oh, the lyrics are interesting ... lookup the lyrics ... listen again to your video ... listen some more ...

You went whole-hog here, quite a spooky feel to this, a very rich atmosphere.
I can only applaud and humbly offer a trivial suggestion ... I think the wrist watch is out of place (maybe like the one on the charioteer in "Ben-Hur").

Thanks for this and also for revealing another great band.

What you smokin! That was kinda hypnotic that driving beat I liked it! I'm always open to listen to different styles and that was different! Looked like you put a lot into the performance Buddy, that would stand up anywhere sounds like it might come from the 'Deliverance' movie soooooo eeeeeee lol

Well that was certainly different, and a lot of fun.
Leave it to TG and folks like you Buddy to continue to expand my musical horizons.
I’m curious if that was in standard tuning. It doesn’t sound like it.
Yep, kinda haunting, spooky feeling to this … but I like it.

Great job Buddy, thanks for sharing!

Hey Buddy... nice piece of swamp (I'd have thought the Green Man would have felt right at home!).
Haunting, spooky with a hypnotic touch. I dug out the lyrics and sand some harmonies with you there.
I enjoyed that... and now I think its hog calling time....
