Polk Salad Annie

Here's my humble version of Louisiana-born singer/songwriter Tony Joe White's most well-known tune. Recorded live at SABACO in Waseda, Tokyo on December 9, 2010. Loved this song ever since I first heard it at age 12. Here I'm using is the Vietnamese jaw harp called the Dan Moi, plus a wobbly, warbly drone from the JUNO 60 analog synth. Video here.

And, yeah, "here I'm using is", that's English, spoke really good.

Yeah, this is good! Chomp. Chomp chomp.

I have a request, though: Polka Salad Annie.
