That's Josh, Sr. in the video. Reportedly he used to follow Robert Johnson and Ledbelly around the streets of New orleans (or Houston, or Dallas, as you like) around the time of WW1, when he was still a little kid. I saw Josh at Chicago's Gate of Horn, new year's eve, 1961. Some kid named Judy Collins opened for him. I wonder what ever happened to her. :-)

That's Josh Junior, right? Josh White was doing blues back in the 40's until his death. He recorded on Elecktra, good stuff. Does anyone know how to find any of his recordings?Bill

I saw Josh in 67 I think, his bass player was Bill Lee...The father of Spike Lee, no less. Josh died at age 59, heart attack. Far too young, he was one of the greats...Don't smoke kids!!!

Yeah, he said the glued nails was "like playing with gloves on." I didn't know him that well either, but I think he was a great guy.Didn't know about the Super Glue history.Fr. Mike+

Padremigel,Interesting comment. I only met Josh on three different occasions. Along with the money, Another strong motivation was the continual fingernail infections, making playing an often painful and bloody business. Ovation engineers built the OVation with a bit of extra space between the strings and built up his nails with a kind of epoxy that they later patented as Super glue. See Jeremy Wald's HIGH SOCIETY BLUES for more details.
