Thread Name: who is Blue jeans Williams
Subject: who is Blue jeans Williams
I am writing an article about Loogootee, a small town in Indiana (USA)and I want to mention a blind, impoverished violinist who played music on the town square. Following is the information that I have collected thus far. His name is John Moore, known to be a popular singer around the 1920s and 1930s. I am mainly interested in a character John Moore sang about, the character's name is Blue Jeans Williams. I'd like to know if Williams was bandit as Jesse James. I do not have the lyrics of the song I would appreciate if anyone can provide me with information either about John Moore, of Blue Jeans Williams.

Please any information to my email address scaicedo@morgan.ucs.mun.ca Thanks in advance, Regards
