Here's a cool photo of Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter. And a couple songs. And a link to thirty something more songs. And, if you're a complete ignoramus, a link to the Wikipedia thing. The first of these songs "In New Orleans" was later renamed "The House of the Rising Sun" and was a hit for the Animals. The second song "The Gallis Pole" was lifted by Led Zepp.
