Ranie Burnette may not be a known name, but his "Dough Roller Blues" is simply the coolest non-slide take on "Roll and Tumble Blues" that I think you'll find. Single string follows the vocal melody with a consistent alternating bass and is a great place to start for those looking to into the Hill Country sound. Ranie Burnette was born in 1913. No known recordings of Ranie were made until the 1970s and early 1980s. He performed around the local juke joints alongside Fred McDowell and is said to have mentored RL Burnside.
