Benjamin Bodhra/nai/ Origins: Milk Cow Blues (16) RE: WHO WROTE: 16 Jul 98

Well Robert Johnson did a variation of it with Milkcow's calf Blues and I think I have heard the Milkcow blues done also in that era. So HW snr could have written it, but it's more of a bluesy origin than straight country and to me seems that it was probably not him. And that early recording of Milkcow blues was by Kokomo Arnold sometime before 1937 (Just went and grabbed a book on RJ)

Hope that leads towards something

Benjamin
