This Song has a long pedigree. It started in the 19th Century and Black Betty was about a Musket. Bam-a-lam was the report of the gun firing, rock stead was about its handling characteristics, etc. Later it became a song popular with Southern Chain gangs who added in more double entendres. Lead Belly contributed to its popularity.

You may want to check your sources. There's talk that it may date back to the 18th century and it could have been about a bottle of whiskey, a whip, a woman, and it's all speculation. It has all the earmarks of a road-working chant, so it could have easily risen to prominence during the railway era.

Bill Bartlett, the singer and his band Starstruck took Lead Belly's 59 second long "Black Betty" and arranged, recorded and released it on the group's own TruckStar label. None of the others were in the band when it was recorded. The 'edited' version is longer and is the actual band you see in the video. That was done at Epic records and released after this video was made.

It's just very slightly more complicated than the basic fact of - Ram Jam was thrown together quickly to record this song and hung around as group for a bit longer only because of the unexpected "smash" success of "Black Betty" and when nothing else came even close, they intelligently moved on their separate ways. For the complete details of the band, which aren't much, I'll put them below first, and then, because it's much more involved, the story/facts/origin/etc of "Black Betty" all of which not only go way back into the mists of history, but has much more to it than music, in fact music is a minor part of the subject of "Black Betty" and naturally, the song was covered by many acts/artists. So, buddy, here you go: Bill Bartlett had been in the Lemon Pipers and then formed a group called Starstruck. While in Starstruck, Bartlett took Lead Belly's 59-second long "Black Betty" and arranged, recorded and released it on the group's own TruckStar label. "Black Betty" became a regional hit. Producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeffry Katz in New York formed a group around Bartlett called Ram Jam. They re-released the song, and it became a hit nationally. The Ram Jam version was actually the same one originally recorded by Starstruck (albeit significantly edited to rearrange the song structure). The song became an instant hit with listeners, and reached number 18 on the singles charts in the United States and achieved more success in the UK and Australia reaching the top ten. Ram Jam ----- Origin: New York City, U.S. ----- Genres: Rock, boogie rock Years active 1977-1978 ----- Labels: Epic, Rock Candy Past members: Bill Bartlett, Howard Arthur Blauvelt, Pete Charles, Jimmy Santoro, Nick “Nick” Turani, Myke Scavone. The band consisted of Bill Bartlett (guitar and lead vocals), Howie Arthur Blauvelt (bass), Pete Charles (drums), and Myke Scavone (lead vocals). Jimmy Santoro, who toured with the band in support of their debut album, joined on guitar for the follow-up album. Bartlett was formerly lead guitarist for bubblegum group the Lemon Pipers (known chiefly for their song "Green Tambourine", which reached No. 1 in the United States in 1968), while Blauvelt played with Billy Joel in several bands: the Echoes (also renamed the Lost Souls and then the Commandos), the Hassles and El Primo. The band was originally known as 'Creekside Killshack'. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And Now, "Black Betty": You ask the definitive question, the question everybody asks. I have watched dozens and dozens of reaction videos to "Black Betty". Months ago, I saw the absolute, complete explanation. It covers the 200 year history of "Black Betty", that's right two centuries. There is a man, Adam Reader, that has been covering Rock and Roll in every way for years now, if you watch the video I am about to list for you, you will know EVERYTHING there is to know about "Black Betty". Here is what you need to put in the "Search" box at the top of KZbin's screen: 'The EXTENSIVE 200 Year Journey of This 1977 Hard Rock Classic | Professor of Rock'. Watch that fourteen plus minutes and you will be able to tell anybody that brings up the subject exactly what's what. * * * THEN THERE IS THIS: ↓ "Black Betty" (Roud 11668) is a 20th-century African-American work song often credited to Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter as the author, though the earliest recordings are not by him. Some sources say it is one of Lead Belly's many adaptations of earlier folk material. There are numerous recorded versions, including a cappella and folk. The song was eventually, with modified lyrics, remade as a rock song by the American band Ram Jam in 1977. Subsequent recordings, including hits by Tom Jones and Spiderbait, retain the structure of this version. Meaning and origin The origin and meaning of the lyrics are subject to debate. Historically, the "Black Betty" of the title may refer to the nickname given to a number of objects: a bottle of whiskey, a whip, or a penitentiary transfer wagon. David Hackett Fischer, in his book Albion's Seed: Four British Folkways in America (Oxford University Press, 1989), states that "Black Betty" was a common term for a bottle of whisky in the borderlands between northern England and southern Scotland; it later became a euphemism in the backcountry areas of the eastern United States. In January 1736, Benjamin Franklin published The Drinker's Dictionary in the Pennsylvania Gazette offering 228 round-about phrases for being drunk. One of those phrases is "He's kiss'd black Betty." Other sources give the meaning of "Black Betty" in the United States (from at least 1827) as a liquor bottle. In Caldwells's Illustrated Combination Centennial Atlas of Washington Co. Pennsylvania of 1876, a short section describes wedding ceremonies and marriage customs, including a wedding tradition where two young men from the bridegroom procession were challenged to run for a bottle of whiskey. This challenge was usually given when the bridegroom party was about a mile from the destination-home where the ceremony was to be had. Upon securing the prize, referred to as "Black Betty", the winner of the race would bring the bottle back to the bridegroom and his party. The whiskey was offered to the bridegroom first and then successively to each of the groom's friends. John A. and Alan Lomax's 1934 book, American Ballads and Folk Songs describes the origins of "Black Betty": "Black Betty is not another Frankie, nor yet a two-timing woman that a man can moan his blues about. She is the whip that was and is used in some Southern prisons. A convict on the Darrington State Farm in Texas, where, by the way, whipping has been practically discontinued, laughed at Black Betty and mimicked her conversation in the following song." (In the text, the music notation and lyrics follow.) - Lomax, John A. and Alan Lomax, American Ballads and Folk Songs. (1934; reprint, New York: Dover, 1994), 60-1 John Lomax also interviewed blues musician James Baker (better known as "Iron Head") in 1934, almost one year after Iron Head performed the first known recorded performance of the song. In the resulting article for Musical Quarterly, titled "'Sinful Songs' of the Southern Negro", Lomax again mentions the nickname of the bullwhip is "Black Betty". Steven Cornelius in his book, Music of the Civil War Era, states in a section concerning folk music following the war's end that "prisoners sang of 'Black Betty', the driver's whip." In an interview conducted by Alan Lomax with former Texas penal farm prisoner Doc "Big Head" Reese, Reese stated that the term "Black Betty" was used by prisoners to refer to the "Black Maria" - the penitentiary transfer wagon. Robert V. Wells, in "Life Flows On in Endless Song: Folk Songs and American History", writes: ⦁ As late as the 1960s, the vehicle that carried men to prison was known as "Black Betty," though the same name may have also been used for the whip that so often was laid on the prisoners' backs, "bam-ba-lam." - Wells, Robert V., Life Flows On in Endless Song: Folk Songs and American History. (Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, 2009) 156. In later versions, "Black Betty" was depicted as various vehicles, including a motorcycle and a hot rod. Early recordings (1933-1939) The song was first recorded in the field by US musicologists John and Alan Lomax in December 1933, performed a cappella by the convict James "Iron Head" Baker and a group at Central State Farm, Sugar Land, Texas (a State prison farm). Baker was 63 years old at the time of the recording. The Lomaxes were recording for the Library of Congress and later field recordings in 1934, 1936, and 1939 also include versions of "Black Betty". A notated version was published in 1934 in the Lomaxes book American Ballads and Folk Songs. It was recorded commercially in New York in April 1939 for the Musicraft Records label by Lead Belly, as part of a medley with two other work songs: "Looky Looky Yonder" and "Yellow Woman's Doorbells". Musicraft issued the recording in 1939 as part of a 78-rpm five-disc album entitled Negro Sinful Songs sung by Lead Belly. Lead Belly had a long association with the Lomaxes, and had himself served time in State prison farms. Lead Belly was first recorded by the Lomaxes in 1933 when he was approximately 44 years old. John Lomax helped Lead Belly get the recording contract with Musicraft in 1939. Post-1939 While Lead Belly's 1939 recording was also performed a cappella (with hand claps in place of hammer blows), most subsequent versions added guitar accompaniment. These include folk-style recordings in 1964 by Odetta (as a medley with "Looky Yonder", with staccato guitar strums in place of hand claps), and Alan Lomax himself. Singer Dave Ray of the folk-blues trio Koerner, Ray and Glover also recorded the song unaccompanied on their 1964 album Lots More Blues, Rags and Hollers. In 1968, Manfred Mann released a version of the song, arranged for a band, on their LP Mighty Garvey!, with the title and lyrics changed to "Big Betty". In 1972, Manfred Mann's Earth Band performed "Black Betty" live for John Peel's In Concert on the BBC, this version was released in 2019 on the double CD / triple LP Radio Days Volume 4, which also contains an earlier rendition from 1971 under the title "Big Betty". The same musical arrangement but with a new lyric and altered vocal melody appeared on the Earth Band's second album Glorified Magnified as "Look Around", credited solely to drummer Chris Slade. A studio version of "Big Betty" was recorded at the same sessions but remained unreleased until the 40th Anniversary box set in 2011.

That's Rock's relation to the Blues for you, right there. Originally a sort of jam by the great Leadbelly (Hudie Leadbetter) then blitzed by this classic hard rock outfit. Sad they didn't have many other hits, but what the H; if this is your legacy track, you've done enough.

Hi! I think you would really enjoy Home Free's rendition of How Great Thou Art. The video was filmed in the Austrian Alps and is very beautiful. Home Free is an acapella group.

😂 Black Betty was the name of the Truck in S.W.A.T. ... pretty sure Luca named her after hearing this song... 🤔 but he didn't hear this version. He heard the version by Spider Bait... and is actually the best cover of this song I've ever heard.

I have never partaken of art, aural or ocular, out of context, and as a result, I'm never dissatisfied. At worst, I appreciate (or rather, don't appreciate) a particular work, and reinforce my enjoyment when once again experiencing good artistry. Wise men (and women) don't do the stupid things that fools do.

There is a lot more behind the term "Black Betty", goes back, I believe, even to the Civil War. Has a lot of different meanings depending on who you talk to.

I came across some of you older react videos where you discovered some country artists like Hank Williams Jr, The Righteous Bros, and George Jones. You should give Chiseled In Stone by Vern Gosdin a listen. He is known as "The Voice". The song Flip Flops back and forth with He Stopped Loving Her Today by George Jones as arguably the best country song ever depending upon who you ask.
