This musical gem is the stuff of which myths and legends abound. Billy Childish, having heard the Blue Fields Express, wanted his own broken-down engine of a group and put out the word. And so, they came from near and afar.  And then of course there's Billy, stringing up his father's 1910 banjo, picking in open G and singing in what he imagined were the tones of the lost looking for solace.
