Ramblin' Jack on skiffle music, from 2000:
Shirley Collins puts down skiffle and Lonnie Donnegan, and talks about Bob and Ramblin' Jack, Muddy Waters and the blues scene back in the day.

Priceless! Jimmy Page in a skiffle band, 1957:
The between song "interview" is pretty amusing in light of the direction his career took. |

Have you seen the news, Warren (and friends) ? : This Land is Your Land Project

Ah, the ribbons! Should be very interesting to hear the collective glory. Here the lyrics (with spirit) and sheet music are found:

From earlier this year at the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering at Elko, Nevada. Elliott sings, talks, tries and fails to tune his guitar, and amuses the crowd for about 24 minutes. A couple of the songs are cut off mid-song, including "Diamond Joe," but at about the 15 1/2 minute mark, Jack sings a fine and complete version of "Arthritis Blues," with a voice still powerful. The video is pro-shot and the man is sporting a moustache. His set is followed by Tom Russell's.

No date on the video (...happiest on the spar of a clipper ship), but I'm guessing 1980s. The uploader is a Australian fan-buddy of Elliott's:

Here's a concise CBS "mini-bio" about Elliott. This was done after he won his second Grammy, four years ago. Ends somewhat abruptly, possibly due to an edit:
Here is a longer and better (pro-shot) video of Jack with Beck at Newport, earlier this year:
And here's Elliott singing "Don't Think Twice ...," also at Newport:

Billy Faier talks a bit and then sings "The Great Assembly," accompanied by his banjo, JA 04 14, in Frisco. Elliott is present and there are a couple of nice photos of Ramblin' Jack and Faier, together.

Billy Faier talks about the circumstances of his meeting Woody Guthrie, and also traveling with him. He shares an interesting anecdote about being with Guthrie in Okemah. Jack Elliott is mentioned several times.
Setting: Marathon. Texas, seemingly on a porch at a truck stop. Marathon - pop. less than 500 - was a filming location for Wim Wenders movie, "Paris, Texas" (soundtrack by Ry Cooder). |
