This Mississippi tune is named after a famously rough part of the state. I got it from Freeney's Barn Dance Band on County's "Mississippi String Bands" compilation, recorded in 1930. It's also on my album, Homunculus Mellitus.
From the Mississippi Possum Hunters' 1935 recording. Hear it on County's "Mississippi String Bands" compilation, or on my album "Homunculus Mellitus". I changed the name of the tune because I found out that its original name could be considered offensive.
