Watermelon Slim

Post by Old Outlaw »

I'm sure most of you have never heard of him but he is a great harp, dobro & guitar player in the Blues genre. His last album (a country style one where he covers many great country classic tunes), has a version of "He Went to Paris" on it.

I like it but it is very different form JB's version. My wife thinks it sucks but she would since she compares it to "Jimmy's" version!!!

I just found it very interesting that Slim covered Jimmy. Completely different worlds....
