Today's topic, Kid Bailey. Kid Bailey was a Mississippi Delta blues man.
His one known recording session occurred on September twenty fifth, nineteen twenty nine,
in Memphis, Tennessee. He collaborated with Charlie Patton and a circle of Delta
blues musicians who swapped melodies, riffs, and lyrics during the late nineteen twenties
and early thirties, such as Sun House and Tommy Johnson, just to name
a few. Little is known about Bailey. His voice had a distinctly course
yet youthful quality. Two of his recordings have survived out Rowdy Blues and Mississippi
Bottom Blues. In most digital releases, the tracks are attributed to Willie Brown,
yet are evidently the same artist credited as Kid Bailey on the original seventy
eight RPM recordings. You're listening to Gail Nobles on podcasting Blues. I'd like
to share with you now. Rowdy Blues performed by Kid Bailey, Ain't gone
