I have been listening to some of the old jug bands. First of all I think Gus Cannon is the best jug player of them all. (I promised myself I wouldn't start any contraversial threads--so much for that promise.)

The jug band that I haven't listened to is the Jim Kweskin, because I can't find any of his records in our library and I don't own any. That means I will have to b-b-buy one. I would be interested in recommendations of what you think are his good albums.

As I recall he did covers of the Memphis Jug Bands' "Lindberg Hop" and "Stealin' Stealin'". I would like the albums to contain these if possible.

I was going to put up Noah Lewis (from the Jug Stompers) as the best harmonica player with a jug band; but I recall the harmonica player with Jim Kweskin (Lehman?) was really good.
