Get going this Monday morning with an upbeat number from New Orleans' premier washboard-sousaphone-guitar trio, the Tin Men (Alex McMurray, Matt Perrine, and Washboard Chaz): "Sit Down on the Banks of the River", originally by blues legend the Reverend Gary Davis. This version was recorded live in March 2013 at the Festival A Vaulx Jazz, in the Charlie Chaplin Cultural Center of Vaulx-en-Velin near Lyons, France.
