"Cumberland Gap" is a traditional American folk song that became an international hit through its skiffle adaptation by Lonnie Donegan. Donegan's energetic 1957 recording helped introduce generations of listeners to skiffle and remains one of the best-known versions of the song.

The single is widely regarded as the record that launched the British skiffle craze, inspiring thousands of young people to form bands. Many future rock musicians—including members of The Beatles, The Who, and Led Zeppelin—later cited the skiffle movement, and often Donegan's recording specifically, as an early influence on their musical ambitions.

Für die Jüngeren: Ich habe in der Silvesternacht ein Live-Doppelalbum von einer alten Frau namens #InaDeter auf Vinyl gehört. Ein Reim, der mir besonders gefiel, war:
Ich schreib's an jede Wand:
Für Helmut Kohl gibt's Flaschenpfand!Helmut Kohl war mal Bundeskanzler, als es noch normal war, dass dieser Job von Männern gemacht wird.
Ina Deters erste Band war eine #Skiffle-Band. So fingen auch die Beatles an. Markenzeichen vieler dieser Bands war der selbst gebaute, einsaitige Bass – anscheinend oft auf Besenstiel-Basis.
Das Lied, aus dem die Zeile stammt, entstand lange nach ihrer Skiffle-Zeit: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neue_Männer_braucht_das_Land

"Freight Train" is an American folk song written by #ElizabethCotten in the early 20th century, and popularized during the #AmericanFolkRevival and British #skiffle period of the 1950s and 1960s. By Cotten's own account in the 1985 #BBC series Down Home, she composed "Freight Train" as a teenager (sometime between 1906 and 1912), inspired by the sound of the trains rolling in on the tracks near her home in #NorthCarolina.

Van Morrison - Moving on Skiffle
It's like the uncle at Thanksgiving yelled at you for most of the meal, then got up and absolutely ripped through a set of classics, blowing you off your chair and making you forget the sourness you sat through just a little while ago.
Sure, he occasionally slips the knife in (eg "Gov Don't Allow"), but he does it with a smile...
