Subject: RE: Leadbelly: Doin' the Sukey Jump
By the way, Rick. If Leadbelly is important to you, you should look at the The Leadbelly page, which gives information about the Leadbelly Newsletter (which I think was started as a vehicle to prove that he was innocent of one of the murders. I think the process was started by one of his daughters or nieces.

The guy who runs it (I don't have his name to hand,) has RealAudio samples of a lot of Leadbelly's songs that he (who is nameless) performs on an imitation of Leadbelly's Stella. It also has links to where you can purchase a Stella imitation if you have the Shekles.
