What Did He Say? | 3 Generation Reaction | Ram Jam | Black Betty

[@jasonremy1627]

The story behind this video is that the record company gave them $500 to make a music video, so the band spent $450 on weed and beer, and threw this party with it, and just filmed it.

[@rudymorganti7155]

💯 true

Hearing an interview . . The band on the video is not the same as the one that recorded the single . . That came from a Bill Bartlett interview .. hes the lead on the video . .

[@briangriffin5524]

If this is 1977, they may have shot this on Super 8 film. What we used to call home movie film.

[@danadnauseam]

@@rogerreed905 Bartlett said that they were told one morning to get their gear and go out ti shoot the video for a promoter in England. He didn't even see the final cut until 40 years later when his dentist showed it to him. The song itself is an old folk song. The best known previous recording was by the great bluesman Leadbelly (Huddie Leadbetter, whom the band thought had written it), but he probably learned it in prison, as the first recording was a Lomax field recording. The Ram Jam record is a 1977 remix of a 1973 recording by Bartlett's previous band, Starstruck. After Starstruck broke up, Bartlett was contacted by the producers he his earlier band, the Lemon Pipers, had worked with in the late 60s. Ram Jam was organized aground the song. Ram Jam lasted for two albums, mostly decent blues-rock, but this was their only hit.

Black Betty was a metaphor used for a lot of different things. Whiskey to slaves. It was a song done by the blues singer Lead Belly and said to have been a slave song. However, Ram Jams version is said by its creator to be about Betty Paige, a 1950s pinup model. The last two verses are specifically about her....

I was born in 1959 and I'm into Blues, Soul and Rock and I have looked up a lot of songs to see if there was an original artist. Little Eva, Mama Thornton, Robert Johnson just to name a few that their songs were covered and became big hits.

[@ronhall5395]

Very good song. Written over 100 yrs ago ( maybe 200). Black Betty was a musket used by the military. Strong reliable and very accurate. The next generation was called a Brown Bess. So black Betty had a child, brown bess. Brown Bess was junk, not accurate ( gone blind) and not reliable ( gone wild). The third verse was added by Ram Jam to make the song longer. They should have added a few more verses.

[@hetrodoxlysonov-wh9oo]

English settlers from Northumberland and Cumberland who settled the Appalachians called their Whiskey 'Black Betty' it refers to the still they used to make their whiskey with, having a child is the whiskey being born and it can send you blind, it gets you high and when she shakes that thing it really makes you sing.

[@stevedavis5704]

I was told the blind part came because of the smoke that was made from firing the musket and if you didn’t load the weapon properly it would blow up in your face or as the song said “Go wild” and blind you.

"Black Betty" 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.

[@Spunky62]

[@dvsreed]

I watched a documentary about this song. It's a really old song, possibly revolutionary war era old. There are old recorded versions from the 1930's. Ram Jam played it faster and added a few lines. Several theories about what it means but most agree that it was about a musket rifle. Guns at that time were wildly inaccurate. The bam a lam is the sound of the gun, child gone blind is the musket ball going off target, it was not mine is saying not my fault, somebody else's shot. Ram Jam probably meant the lyrics to mean something else.

Lead Belly was a pioneer of folk/blues, and sometimes bluesmen would just string together a bunch of thoughts and words just because they sounded good and flowed well. "Black Betty" could in fact be a patchwork of the different interpretations. I know Birmingham Alabama was once a major iron/steel producing city. If Black Betty was a musket, the iron could've been from Birmingham, way down in Alabam.😁

[@Arkryal]

So this is an old folk song, authorship unknown, but it was popularized by two Blues artists in the 1920s and 1930s, "Ironhead" and "Lead Belly" respectively. "Black Betty" isn't a person, it's the whip that was used to beat black prisoners on the chain gang. "Bam la Bam' is the sound of the whip... "She's so rocksteady, always ready"... pretty ominous, and when she "makes me sing" the implication is screaming in pain. There have been hundreds of versions of this song, and in typical Blues fashion, every artist has taken their own interpretation. In some versions, Black Betty is a gun, in other's it's a drug. But it is never a person, that is clear, it's an allegory for something that keeps people down. RamJam's version is the most popular recording to date, and it's the version most other bands cover now, but it's quite far from the original already.

This was a drinking song in pre-revolutionary English pubs and black Betty is what the English called (Scotch) Whiskey. Benjamin Frankllin refered to it in some of his letters back to the Colonies. English soldiers brought the song with them to fight the insurgence. The song subsequently underwent several/many changes over the years. It became famous in 1933 when James "Ironhead" Hayward was the first to record it but, before that, it was sung by convicts, like Huddy "Leadbelly" Ledbetter, in chain gangs, in the south. Huddy also recorded a version of it in 1939, after his release from prison . . . . . for murder.
