I'm Sittin' On Top Of The World - Beale Street Rounders

There are no photos of the Beale Street Rounders as a group. They were a Memphis, TN. group that only cut two sides, resulting in one 78 RPM record.

On this release the song was credited to Davenport. The song was actually composed by Walter Vinson & Lonnie Chatmon of The Mississippi Shieks, even though the original lyrics have been altered.

Jed Davenport:Harmonica

Unknown:Piano

Henry L. Castle (Too Tight Henry):Vocals & Guitar

Recorded in Chicago, IL October 13, 1930
