 Blues Lyrics and Hoodoo
I am using this material as a folkloric research tool, not as an index of how popular the idea of voodoo is with modern performers.
In order to eliminate non-"authentic" references, i have eliminated any song by a performer whom i know to be "white" (Johnny Otis excepted) or whom i think has too much of a "modern urban rock band" style to supply basic folkloric information about hoodoo practices in the South.
This elimination is based on what i know of the performers, not necessarily the songs.
