Albert Macon and Robert Thomas were a vibrant acoustic guitar team from the Chattahoochee Valley region of Alabama who played together for over forty years. The a-side features their down-home, party-starting take on Slim Gaillard's "Flat Foot Floogie". "Play the strings out of it! Beat the blood out of it, now!" Good advice! Macon goes it alone on the flip side, asking the musical questions, "Mama Can I Lay it Down" and "How Can You Do It". Macon passed in 1993, but last I heard, Thomas was still playing in and around Society Hill, Alabama, sometimes with George Daniel.
