Re: Oldest blues song of all
Huh?
Catchy little tune, but, as far as I can see, it was recorded in 1924. Any how, blues form or not (is it?), to paraphrase Ian Hislop, if that record's da blooz, I'm a banana

The Misses Duncan listen in awe to the playback of ... the first ever recorded blues ... by them!
Blues success only served to make the gorgeous siblings, if possible, even more beautiful:
Tinseltown was entranced, and the sisters became global silver-screen superstars!
As so often happens, the girls' star faded, and they spent several decades in the doldrums. 'Never say never' was their motto and, amazingly, they resurfaced in the 1980s as the toppermost of teh poppermost in the glitzy world of D-I-S-C-O!

I couldn't find SH Dudley's version on the youtubes - but did find Arthur Collins's 1899 #1 hit record:
and a Columbia cylinder by Len Spencer (just a snippet of the song ... ) from the same period, I guess:
