DESCRIPTION:
Sittin' on Top of the World, performed by Jack Williams (www.jackwilliamsmusic.com). In concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions(www.imtfolk.org) Monday Night Concert, Rockville, MD, USA on September 20th, 2010.

The music of Jack Williams, rooted in his native South Carolina, is shaped by a 51-year career of playing folk, rock, jazz, R&B, classical and the popular music of the 30s, 40s and 50s. He is counted among the most dynamic performers on today's "folk" circuit Jack is considered a "musician's musician", an uncommonly unique guitarist, a writer of vivid songs with a strong sense of place, and a storyteller in an old Southern tradition who further illustrates each tale with his guitar.

As always, we gratefully thank the Maryland State Arts Council (www.msac.org), the Montgomery County Arts & Humanities Council (www.creativemoco.com), and all our other donors, supporters, and volunteers.
