Subject: RE: Find Song Folk Blues 'Solid Gone' From: Rick Fielding Date: 22 May 99 - 01:44 PM Try the song "The Cannonball". My favourite recording is by Frank Hutchison, but he may be a bit obscure for most folks. Tom Rush also did a nice job on it. |
Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: CANNONBALL BLUES From: Roger in Baltimore Date: 22 May 99 - 02:11 PM Tudderj, The words are in the DigiTrad Database (the DT). If you typed in [solid gone] in the search engine in the upper-right hand corner of this page, you could have found them. The brackets [ ] tell it to search for that phrase. Click here if you want to peek at them. They are credited to Bruce Phillips. I would suspect that means U. Utah "Bruce" Phillips. I don't think he wrote the song, and I am surprised he stole from the tradition that way. Here is the tab the way I sing it, borrowed from Tom Rush.
CANNONBALL BLUES Enjoy the music! Roger in Baltimore |

Subject: RE: Find Song Folk Blues 'Solid Gone' From: woody Date: 23 May 99 - 04:17 PM Think the name of that song is She's Gone by Cannon's Jug Stompers and Later By Mark Spoelstra in the Late 60's early 70's. |
Subject: RE: Find Song Folk Blues 'Solid Gone' From: Pete Peterson Date: 24 May 99 - 03:09 PM I am pretty sure that the original of this (and the source for Utah Phillips, Tom Rush and the more modern versions) is the Carter Family's Cannonball Blues. A.P. Cater learned it from Lesley Riddles, black guitar player and, as was the tradition at the time, copywrited it in his own name. Haven't heard the Gus Cannon version but it sounds like a close relative. PETE |
Subject: RE: Find Song Folk Blues 'Solid Gone' From: Easy Rider Date: 24 May 99 - 03:21 PM A very early version is on "The Anthology of American Folk Music", required listening, which is now out on CD (six of them) from Smithsonian Folkways. Easy Rider |
Subject: RE: Find Song Folk Blues 'Solid Gone' From: CarterNut Date: 24 May 99 - 03:57 PM I know that Mother Maybelle Carter and her daughters June, Helen, and Anita recorded "The Cannonball" at least three different times between 1949 and 1974. They put a little chorus to the song:
Now I'm here crying cause he's gone, Of course it is Mother Maybelle doing all that fancy blues guitar work (taught to her by Leslie Riddle) on that original Carter Family recording. John |
