Recorded circa March 1931 in Grafton, Wisconsin. Geeshie Wiley on vocals and lead guitar, Elvie Thomas on second guitar. This bouncy, raggy tune opens with the chilling lines: "I picked poor robin clean, picked poor robin clean Picked his head, picked his feet, would have picked his body but it wasn't fit to eat."

Reviewer:nickmovie3 - - January 29, 2005 Subject: One of the Best This song is easily one of the best Blues songs ever recorded. It may not be as good as Geeshie Wiley's other song, "Last Kind Words Blues," but it's still an incredible song. Definitely worth listening.
