Interestingly first time I heard the "would a matchbox hold my clothes" line was in David Bromberg's version of Statesboro Blues..

"Matchbox" is a rockabilly song recorded by Carl Perkins in December 1956. It shares some lyrics with 1920s blues songs by Ma Rainey and Blind Lemon Jefferson. Sam Phillips and Sun Records released the song as the B-side to "Your True Love". Although only the A-side became a record chart hit in 1957, "Matchbox" is one of Perkins' best-known recordings. A variety of musicians have recorded the song, including the Beatles."

Very nice Tony. Loved the style choice, and VH too. I would liked to hear you play a bit more..., maybe a piano, guitar or sax solo for a chorus or two. But either way, a very solid performance.

Tony,

Sounds as good as it did last week when I heard you play it live while we were jamming.
