Anybody heard David Johansen & The Harry Smiths. They're an acoustic folk and blues band from New York City.

This is the same David Johansen who was the lead singer of The New York Dolls, the pre-punk punk band. Later on, he was Buster (Hot Hot Hot) Poindexter.

Anyways, now he's doing songs by Mississippi John Hurt, Furry Lewis and other blues and folk greats. He's really good.

The band is named after the guy who created the Folkways Anthology Of American Folk Music.

This is my first post and my name is Nick. I also have a first cousin named Nick and that's why my Mudcat name is Nick's Cousin Nick.
