Tracks list
In the Blues in St. Louis, Volume 3, electric guitarist Henry Townsend plays familiar blues songs, accompanied by Tommy Bankhead on electric bass. Samuel Charters, who recorded the session in 1961, writes in the liner notes that he was prejudiced against electric instruments until he heard the duo play the first track, Cairo Is My Babys Home. The use of electric instruments for the blues is a trend that continued through the decades, with artists like Albert Collins and B.B. King, and elements of these electric bass lines can even be heard in Led Zeppelins music. 01 - Cairo is My Babys Home 02 - Tired of Being Mistreated 03 - Rocks Have Been My Pillow 04 - The Train is Coming 05 - She Just Walked Away 06 - I Asked Her if She Loved Me 07 - I Got Tired 08 - My Home Aint Here 09 - All My Money Gone 10 - She Drove Me to Drinking 11 - My Baby Have Come Back
