Talk:Boll Weevil (song)

Brook Benton
I'm glad someone knew more about the origins of the song than I did when I created the page for the Benton version. All I knew was that it was based on an older song, then I kind of hit a road block. Zephyrnthesky (talk) 03:57, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Recording
This recording by Ma Rainey appears to be in the public domain. However, it is impossible to verify that the information in the YouTube video is accurate. Any efforts to help locate a freely usable recording of this song, which should exist and would greatly enhance the quality of this article, would be much appreciated.  Mysterymanblue  01:24, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * It has come to my attention that the copyright for audio recordings is different than that for other works, and thus recordings of this work made from 1923 to 1946 will actually enter the public domain 100 years after publication.  Mysterymanblue  02:10, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
