Famous Hokum Boys - Various Artists

'Hokum' was a raucous, rowdy music that nevertheless demanded good musicianship. All these sides were cut in 1930 - a testament to the popularity of Big Bill and Georgia Tom, both as single artists and as the Famous Hokum Boys. An added joy, on the session of February 5th, is Scrapper Blackwell taking time out from his partnership with Leroy Carr.
