First recorded in 1922 by Anna Meyers with the Original Memphis Five quintet, our Music of the Week is one of the great blues classics and a grand song of financial freedom and freedom of choice. The song has been recorded and performed numerous times and is presented here in the version by Tennessee blues legend Frank Stokes.
