Really interesting! Thanks for posting it.

I passed it along to a friend whose father runs a UK blues club, and I'm sure it'll interest him & his family, too...

Cheers

Thanks, Justa. I remember reading, some years back, that Claud was persuing his claim but I didn't know how it was resolved. I just assumed Claud was screwed by the system just like everyone else.

This kind of reminds me of James Carter who was compensated for the recording of Po' Lazarus made while he was a prisoner and used in the film Oh Brother Where Art Thou?.

Actually I was looking for any kind information on Johnny Mars who has a song called Mighty Mars.

I'm an acoustic guitar/harmonica blues/vocals amateur musician looking for some good stuff.

Thanks,

Warren

That old link in the OP no longer works,
so it is time for a link to the same article
which DOES work.
