v Who does "Cotton Eye Joe"?

There is a song named "Cotton Eye Joe" by a group called Red Nex that was a hit around 1995, but this is *not* the original bandstand favourite. Different words, different melody, no _Bull_Shit_, if you know what I mean.

The Isaac Payton Sweat version of the Cotton Eyed Joe is on his album "Cotton Eyed Joe, Shottish, Jole Blon and Other Bandstand Favorites" and is available from:

Bellaire Records
P.O. Box 125
Bellaire, TX 77402

You can call them at (713) 667-9196 for pricing and credit card orders.

From: dbrodsky@delphi.com (David Brodsky):

We sell the CDX version of the "Cotton-Eyed Joe" as performed by the Joe Barnhill Band. It's just as good the the Sweat version. The 5 track CD sells for $6.98 (plus S&H). We sell tons to dance clubs and dance instructors.
