Half-brother of Big Bill Broonzy, the prolific Washboard Sam was a blues favorite of the 1930s and `40s, and one of the period`s truly inventive songwriters. This CD includes, along with Peetie Wheatstraw-like slices of life, lyrics that reveal a unique sense of humor; ``Soap and Water Blues`` is among the most hilarious of insult blues. He was a good, strong tenor singer, with an evenly sustained vibrato and, uniquely, accompanied himself on washboard. He sounds like two different singers here, according to his accompaniments. Thirteen of these tracks have the generic Bluebird blues sound, in four-beat time over the rocking swing of Broonzy`s guitar and Memphis Slim`s erratic piano. The other nine are wild, with the irrepressible Roosevelt Sykes` jumping, two-beat piano and rough and ready saxophonists, including good, early J.T. Brown. (Chicago Blues)

Gyro, a while back you were open to suggestions for another file uploader? Zippyshare has to be one of the sleaziest out there - now it's almost impossible to close down their pop up pages.
Have you considered going back to Rapidshare? If you haven't used it recently, it's at least TWICE as fast as ZS and much classier, I have to say.
Thanks
re zippy, I find it fast and I don't get pop-ups (I use chrome). RS is better than it was but has daily dl limits and would not last long on this site.
Thanks again for all you do.
I also don't have a problem with Zippy, it allows multiple DL, is fast and free of ads for me. I also like rapidshare, but I fear that lemonflag is right, it wouldn't last more than a few days on this blog.
To a prior Anonymous: I think that you haven't been around very long. Zippyshare has been top notch and fail to see what you could possibly consider to be sleaze. You obviously haven't downloaded using any of the actually obnoxious download sites. Multiple wait times, multiple pages to click through, every click produces at least one more popunder, scroll around among the pages looking for the actual download link instead of the links that say download but actually go to ilivid or another ad site, find the click box that you need to uncheck so that you actually download the file that you want and NOT a download manager. The list of sleaze goes on. You may find Rapidshare to be fine now but they have a history following them and, BTW Rapidshare only works for the free downloader if the uploaders allocated bandwidth hasn't been used up. Ever had that problem with Zippyshare? If you truly are having trouble managing the actually minimal popups (popunders) from Zippyshare perhaps you should consider enrolling in a basic computer class. Learn how to use a popup blocker (does,t help for popunders) and how to use your HOSTS file to block the ad sites that screw up your browser. - Skip (I'm the 3.71 guy from a previous stomp post. Very sorry for another saga but I just couldn't let the asinine nature of this ingrates complaint go by unanswered.)
Zippy is great! Fast and no pop ups!
Gyro...
Zippyshare works just fine...no pop ups for me and I like that you can do multiple downloads.
I agree with prior comment about Rapidshare would not last long with this group.
Outstanding postings and the Palu Revere is truly different.

You might want to consider PackUpload and/or Drop Canvas, neither of which have pop-ups (which is making Zippy less likable every day) and both up which are fast.
On the downside, DropCanvas can make you wait if you're doing multiple downloads, like, say, the individual tracks on a CD instead of the whole album.
For god sakes, zippy has been a lifesaver. I can't fathom why anyone would have problems with it (chrome or opera yield flawless zippytude)
Nothing to fix here but, perhaps, a problem at the other end of the line.
As always, tz is the first place I visit each morning - you guys are saints.
Thank You.
What mckee said, especially about your sainthood!
I use firefox and now and then I get popups(with Zippy)...still better than Rapid those mothers will eat the link in few days and us too.
Jeez, I use AdBlocker and never have a problem with popups. When something is good, fast and free like Zippyshare, that usually means unwanted advertising. It's churlish to complain about free stuff that can be so easily managed with a little bit of computer savvy.
Ryp, Gyro, et al - keep up the good work!

I LOVE Zippy! Plus, it has the added advantage of giving me an Alzheimer's test every download. As long as I can figure out those words I'm okay. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

If one uses Firefox + Adblock plus, NO popups @ Zippyshare, ever.
Fast, reliable, ***ONLY server to allow dl resume to free users ***(important for folks w craptastic internet connections), allows multiple dls to free users also... jeez, what is the problem?
Blows RS out of the water, plus I do not trust RS in the slightest.
I love Zippyshare!
