Watch Dix Bruce Perform “Railroad Bill” on a 1943 Martin 000-18

Was outlaw Morris Slater the original Railroad Bill, or did he acquire the nickname from an earlier blues ballad? Ethnomusicologists may differ, but there‘s no question that the familiar folk tune sounds great when Dix Bruce fingerpicks it on this 1943 Martin 000-18, one of 27 guitars offered in the Acoustic Guitar Auction that begins May 13, 2021.
