Life and career[edit]

According to News.com.au, the fast bowler had also played five ODIs for Australia and had been immortalized in the 1978 World Series Cricket anthem ' C'mon Aussie C'mon ' with the line 'Gilmour's wielding willow like an axe'. About C'mon N' Ride It (The Train) 'C'mon N' Ride It (The Train)' is a popular dance song performed by Florida group Quad City DJ's in 1995, and released in 1996 as a single from the album Get On Up and Dance. It is based on a sample of Barry White's 1974 main theme from soundtrack to the film Together Brothers.

David Lonzo Thompson was born in Jackson, Mississippi, United States.[2] His father, Sam Thompson, had played the blues with Asie Payton, Paul 'Wine' Jones, and James 'Son' Thomas amongst others.[3] With his encouragement, Thompson learned to play blues guitar by the age of nine, and he formed his first group, the Delta Blues Band, in Leland, Mississippi in his early teens.[1][3] He teamed up with Booba Barnes in 1984, and played the Mississippi juke joint circuit.[2][4]

He first recorded on I Got the Dog in Me (1994),[5] a Fat Possum Records release, providing guitar backing for David Malone, one of Junior Kimbrough's sons. Thompson's own debut record was Little Dave and Big Love (1995). It was also released by Fat Possum.[2]Little Dave and Big Love was produced by Robert Palmer,[6] and nominated for two W. C. Handy Awards in 1996 for 'Best New Blues Artist' and 'Contemporary Blues Album'.[3][7]

In 2002, Thompson released C'mon Down to the Delta on JSP Records. In 2006, Got to Get Over You appeared, issued by Electro-Fi Records, whilst Deep in the Night followed in 2008.[4] Regarding the latter, Down Beat magazine stated it was 'Incendiary and feral, with a church choir hustle and a Mississippi hill country stomp'.[8][9] Constant touring gave Thompson a growing loyal audience.[10][11]

In 2012, C'mon Down to the Delta was re-released.[12]
