1939 and 40 were really hopping, but 41 is a real home run! A cool 41 pickup and the Carter Family, plus I did not know Alan Lomax recorded a young Muddy Waters!

1945
Charles Brown
The Three Blazers signed with Exclusive Records, and their 1945 recording of "Drifting Blues", with Brown on piano and vocals, stayed on the U.S. Billboard R&B chart for six months, putting Brown at the forefront of a musical evolution that changed American musical performance.

1947. (Song released in 2000 on Sailing To Philadelphia CD). Mark Knopfler captures the time well and this model is the type of auto I see the folks (Gospel singers) in the song traveling around in.
Baloney Again
...Twenty-two years we've sung the word
Since nineteen thirty-one
Amen, I say amen
Now the young folk want to praise the Lord
With guitar, bass and drums, amen
Well I'll never get tired of Jesus
But it's been a heavy load
Carrying His precious love
Down a long dirt road
We're a long way from home
Just let's pay the man and go
Baloney again…

@mg-harv Thanks for picking up the slack! I don’t have a model from 46 but you know I got some blues.
you may know Arthur Crudup from the Elvis 1956 hit That All Right Mama which Elvis recorded 10 years after Arthur recorded in 46.

1947... I am a big Mark Knopfler fan, so thanks for that!

@frank Hey Frank, you always post such excellent music. I've a couple of Charles Brown records on Route 66 label but sadly don't get to listen to them too often as I cannot focus too much on reality! Up-beat tunes are easier, so I listen more to Savoy label stuff: The Ravens are a favourite.
Your De Soto is really in-keeping with the music, so do please post more - cars & great tunes.

Inspired more by Karl's Tatra, than my present Mercedes-Benz, we have Maria Tănase - the Romanian Piaf - singing 'Trenule, masina mica'; a Mercedes-Benz 320 / W42 rebodied by Wengler and a 320A / W42 factory design model 1948 , never produced.

Ivory Joe Hunter: After a series of hits on the US R&B chart starting in the mid-1940s, he became more widely known for his hit recording "Since I Met You Baby" (1956).
