Covers: FDR in Trinidad

Gus Cannon print by Robert Crumb
I just got a signed Robert Crumb print of Gus Cannon.
Cannon led Cannon’s Jug Stompers who recorded the original version of songs in the 1920s that were popular decades later such as “Walk Right In”, “Big Railroad Blues”, and “Viola Lee Blues”
Cannon also made an album in the 1960s.
