Well, this I would guess is a REAL obscure version of 'Whipping Post' performed by a young Emily Elbert...

I think Dad may have taped her performance at home - although I gotta admit her voice and style reminds me a lot of Ellen McIlwaine -

And who in the hell, you may ask, is Ellen McIlwaine?

Another very good bluesy/folksy type in Uncle Crafty's pile 'o' vinyl...

I probably shouldn't make jokes about this young lady - she may be a Grammy winner one day - her phrasing is actually pretty good for a kid.

Hey, you wanted obscure, right?

	"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
