Geoff.... I have to bump this up and advise all to check out your other videos if they haven't already! I got a Charlie Poole record with this song on it probably 40 years ago, and I'll bet I haven't thought of it in 30. All your videos are great! Thanks

Very well done John, there's even a chance I may finally learn the chorus Simon Prager used to play this regularly round the clubs and leave the audience spluttering when it came to their bit.Great to hear it again.john p

Well spotted, DT! It is indeed 'Leaving Home', learned from the 1926 Charlie Poole recording, with a few lines added from a version published in 1912 that I found thanks to the magic of the internet!

Very cool. That sounds a lot like the old Charlie Pool version, which he called "Leaving Home."
Thanks for all those positive comments. I'll pass them on to John who was, of course, the rightful recipient and the real star of the show!

This was great fun to listen too! Enjoyed very much.
