"Haunted House" by Lonnie Johnson & Elmer Snowden

<p>This episode drops the needle on <strong>“Haunted House,”</strong> a sly, spectral blues recorded in the late 1920s by two giants of early American music: guitar virtuoso <strong>Lonnie Johnson</strong> and banjoist-turned-bandleader <strong>Elmer Snowden</strong>. On the surface, it’s a playful ghost story — blue spirits drifting through a lonely home.</p><p><br /></p><p>But like the best blues, the haunting here is metaphorical: for love that lingers, loneliness that won’t leave, and memories that pace the halls long after the night has settled in.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dustbin Prophecies: digging through the forgotten corners of rock history — one record at a time.</p><p><br /></p>
