Genuine Negro Jig

Photobucket



Yes, kiddies, that's the title of the latest album from The Carolina Chocolate Drops, who will be playing in York, PA on Wednesday September 8 at The Strand.


They play genuine American music, which means music that is a combination of poor black folks' music and poor white folks' music. You probably know it by the names "blues", "folk", "bluegrass", or "jazz". [And by jazz, I mean real jazz. Look up Nick LaRocca and you'll see what I mean.] Heck, some might even call it "country". After all, Hank Williams [Senior, of course.] had more in common with Robert Johnson than Eric Clapton did.

Their music is so fine, I won't even notice all the leftards in the audience who think they get it.
