Always enjoy your videos Jon, and you should do more. I guess I’m the guy that’s 1 in 40, because that rendition of ain’t no grave was great. A friend that I was in a band with about 25 years ago would do old gospel songs like that in church, I’ll fly away, he set me free, etc. good stuff and totally understand about your soul pullin’ you. Love that Electric Prunes song too.

Rare but not sought after sums up a lot of the music I love. Ain’t No Grave is what I call fantastic.

Right on Michael! This music came from the same area Bluegrass was invented! Very very similar. Both born from the same mountain music, this track is a bit more religious and basic while the bluegrass added the hotshot banjo and guitar breaks over the top. Thanks for watching Michael!! Sorry I haven’t been over your livestreams in a while! Thursdays I don’t get home til late. I check in on your channel, looks like you’ve been busy living life! That’s awesome! All the best, Jon

Hi Jon. It's good to see you back posting a video. I know what you mean about not being in the mood. I don't know how some of the bigger channels manage to post so much (mind you the quality certainly drops when they are just posting for the sake of it) ... The Amos Milburn 45 got me thinking about when the first 45 came out in the UK. I checked and the first pop 45 was by Eddie Fisher in 1952. 78's were still being pressed throughout the 50's, and the last one was one by Elvis Presley in 1960 ... "Music that comes from the earth." I like that.

I liked all of those tunes, Jon. I've got quite a few versions of Ain't No Grave, but that one by The Cooke Duet is a great one. It sounds much older than 1965. It's amazing to think with all the developments going on in popular music in the 60s, a song like that was recorded. One of my favourite pick ups from last year was a recording of Bessie Jones and the Georgia Sea Island Singers recorded by Alan Lomax, and while they don't sing Ain't No Grave, it would certainly fit in. I've got a video of gospel, scared harp singing and early American Folk hymns in the works. That'll bring in the subscribers 😄 Cheers - Hedley

People tune in for heavy metal, but they get reggae or they tune in for fifties music and I show punk etc etc. I do know Bessie Jones. I got at least on track I know on those Lomax CDs that came out on Rounder in the 90s. But realistically, I’m not well versed in these styles of music, just enjoy a good track or two when the mood hits. The thing about the Cooke Duet that has me so excited is having the actual 45 artifact. It makes it so much more precious than the songs on my reissue LPs or CDs. Hope you’re doing well Hedley!! Thanks again!! Cheers, Jon

Great 45s! I never pass on an early Electric Prunes 45, they were sooo good! I done done it is a fave here, I play it out quite often, really like the rhythm of that track. Might be his best outing!

That Amos Milburn 45 came out Sept '54 (according to 45world). He toured with Charles Brown, and they were paired on split singles too, most notably Please Come Home For Christmas (Brown) b/w Christmas Comes But Once A Year (a SMOKING Milburn gem!) on King in 1960. Though country, this version of Ain't No Grave soars with a soul of its own to it. Those distortions could be the mic thing, their voices' effects on the cutting itself, how cheap it was recorded, or all of the above. I bet it actually helps you get that raw feeling you're talking about.

Their vocals {Jeanette and Hubert} are very strong Jon. If I was digging for singles and I saw that one I would not have known who they were. Like thousands of other singles. But if there was a turntable in the shop and I sampled it first. I probably would have bought it. But I do agree with your assessment of the recording.

That was Arthur “Guitar Boogie” Smith who had the massive guitar instrumental by the same name. Big influence on country boogie and RnR. Hope you’re doing well!

Cheers! Always so much fun to see your videos; dig that Amos Milburn. I was surprised by the Little Boys Blues; has a sound almost like Arthur Lee's Love.I think I understand what you mean when you hear And Ain't No Grave. I feel a similar pull when I hear, I Wish I was a Mole in the Ground (1928) from the Anthology of American Folk Music. Ain't No Grave, indeed does sound amazing. All that restlessness and urgency of craving fulfilment (and meaning) in A hard life flows through those voices. It's truly a remarkable track, Jon. I can understand why you would be inspired by it. (Are you familiar with the folk/country/rock band Freakwater? The lead vocalist Janet Bean sings with a rawness that is not dissimilar from Ain't No Grave. If you're inclined, check out their album Old Paint and the song, Waitress Song. It doesn't have the depth of meaning of Ain't No Grave but there is a strong, working-class defiance (and despair) is truly unique, tragic and beautiful. Be well. Shawn
