Having a go at one of the very earliest blues that Little Brother Montgomery learned. At the young age of 9 or 10, he picked this tune up from an unrecorded pianist named Loomis Gibson. Later on , LBM changed the name from "Loomis Gibson Blues" to "Crescent City Blues," and recorded it first in 1936.
This is not a tune I play all too often, though I've tried to work up a fairly faithful version. I went for a slightly stompier interpretation here, partly because it's my nature and partly because I prefer playing this tune more on the emphatic side, as opposed to a lazy, laid back approach.
Long live Little Brother Montgomery!
