make me a pallet

 The American musician Mississippi John Hurt has been featured in this blog before:

You tube -

Make Me A Pallet On Your Floor 

uploader / channel:  Mississippi John Hurt - Topic


Recently this song turned up in a blizzard of you tube videos,  played by -- Woody Allen! 

        He not only has his record collection,  he plays clarinet with a New Orleans jazz band, as well. 


Make Me a Pallet On the Floor 

uploader / channel:  Bunk Johnson and his Superior Jazz Band - Topic 


       As you listen to these two versions of the song, I recommend playing Mississippi John first, then follow with the more complex jazz version. 


What an interesting and nice surprise this is!
