Thanks for sharing, Wally. Looks like we have an earlier thread on it: link
The Carolina Buddies were a 1920s/30s string band based out of North Carolina. Most known for their song Otto Wood the Bandit, several of the members of the Buddies were the same as those of Charlie Poole's North Carolina Ramblers. This particular song was written by the group's guitarist and vocalist, Walter "Kid" Smith.
