I was there that day...that's my National guitar. I still have it. It floated on my mattress during Katrina...never got wet! Napolean was a fine musician, guitar and harp!

He also was a master of the fife, and the one-string guitar. One of the most musical people ever.

This is a great opener tune in my opinion. It breaks through the tension and nervousness and gets right to the good times.

Big Joe Williams recorded it in 1935 (the first according to Wikipedia) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g22l1hnAnlA.html&ab_channel=RagtimeDorianHenry
