^ Yes, that Bessie Smith song is on that compilation.

I got interested in those types of blues tunes back in the 70's after I first heard "What's That Smells Like Fish" by Blind Boy Fuller. A friend of mine turned me onto his music via Hot Tuna and their song "Keep On Truckin'" which has some of the lyrics from Blind Boy Fuller's song mixed in.

I also have this fantastic 5 record LP set from Jass Records...



"Bring It Home to Grandma", "Ram Rod Blues", "Caught Us Doin' It", "I Want Some of Your Pie", "Loose Like That", "I'm a Mighty Tight Woman", "Please Warm My Weiner", "Take It Easy, Greasy", "Honey Dipper Blues", Just a few of the many suggestive titles included in the set.

And this great compilation of jump blues and r&b songs from the 1950's...



"Big Ten Inch Record", "Big Long Slidin' Thing", "It Ain't the Meat", "Rocket 69", "(I Love to Play Your Piano) Let Me Bang Your Box" to name a few of the included audio gems.
