Day 8: Ramblin' Jack Elliott - Jack Takes The Floor (1958)


Having never heard of Ramblin' Jack Elliott before or caring much about old folk music I was not looking forward to hearing this album, however once I started listening to it I quite liked it. Some of Jack's songs are humorous, some are interesting, all tell a story. His guitar playing is excellent and I really liked the anti-war songs at the end. 4/5.

Tracks I enjoyed the most: The Boll Weevil, Old Blue, Brother Won't You Join The Line, There Are Better Things To Do & Cocaine.
