Wow! This is the stuff! Brit Nicholas D. Ball, who runs the fascinating “Drums in the Twenties” site, lays it down in a trio called Horniblow’s Hot Three. In this video, they’re playing “Skoodlum Blues,” originally recorded by Jimmy O’Bryant’s Famous Original Washboard Band. Mr. Ball is playing a replica of Jasper Taylor’s wooden washboard, which he shows under construction here.

I could listen to these guys all day long.
