Justy a side note: Alan Lomax, in spite of everything he was able to in preserving country blues and other style of music was somewhat condescending toward black folks... It is very evident on Muddy Waters "Plantation Recordings"...

And from what I have read here and there this is one reason why Lead Belly just couldn't hang for any extended time around either John or Alan...

So this thread doesn't come as any surprise to me...
