Recorded in Chicago during April of 1928 featuring 'Blind' Arthur Blake guitar & vocals, Johnny Dodds clarinet, and Jimmy Bertrand spoons, wood blocks, & slide whistle.

The stop-time syncopation of ragtime/blues guitarist Arthur Blake lays the ground work for one hot performance. Additional players, veteran Chicago jazzers, Johnny Dodds and Jimmy Bertrand quickly bring this party to a head when combined with the scat and vocals of the blind guitar virtuoso.
