These songs were written and performed by the "Hobo Jack" seen on the American Pickers TV Show. The recordings were made as the songs were written over a ten year period prior to Jack's television appearances. One song, "Hell On A Hobo" was written by Jack's friend, Liberty Justice ( a prolific songwriter and performer of Hobo genre who never had a recording contract ) Liberty gave the song to Jack to perform. The recordings were done in a converted Model A garage with some decent mics and a computer. The guitar, vocal and harmonica are played in real time with no multi-tracking. A bit of echo was added to several tracks.
