Title: Keith's folky blues songs
Post by Holden on Jan 18^th, 2009 at 6:54pm

I just heard for the first time his recording of cocaine blues and I really love it.

Did he record any other songs like that? I really like that style. The only one I can think of is Hurricane.

The earliest folky thing from Keith I know of is his noodling around on 'Needle of Death' by Bert Jansch. It's on 'Charlie is my Darling' from 1965, right at the start when they're all messing around & goes straight into the old Jugband classic 'Salty Dog'.

Martin Elliott has this listed as #259 'Unknown Folk Song' , not so, every Bert Jansch/Pentangle fan knows of it.

Ohhhh, yeah. Forgot about that. I know exactly what you're talking about. And, coincidentally, I've been listening to Pentangle/Renbourn/Jansch the past couple of days....
