Has there really never been a thread about skiffle?

I'm surprised.
It's like garage, but earlier. The Vipers, eh? Fucking mess, in the best way

Skiffle groups to me are hit and miss, depending mainly on the vocalist. But, in general they are good if you're into early garage/surf groups. Lots of that tough sound.

Weren't the Beatles a skiffle band at first? or am I confusing that with something else.

I usually prefer M&M's.

I know Jimmy Page played skiffle as a kid.

I saw him a few years before he died. A million years old and still giving it fury. There's not many about whom I'd use the word legend.

Odd. I didn't think too many other people knew about skiffle.

That video was the only reason I knew what skiffle was.

Dont say too much about it, or else you might not like it anymore.

Jesus, what a warp. I'm glad I saw this.

Let me guess, VH1 Led Zeppelin Behind The Music.

I've only watched VH1 three or four times in my life. I want to say I'm glad, but in retrospect I wish I had.
