I did a cover of this Leadbelly tune way back, before I had ever even picked up a guitar.Cobain did an incredible cover of it on MTV unplugged that I urge everyone to check out(R.I.P. Kurt.)I decided to come back to it and try fleshing the tune out with a basic backing track(slide intro and bassline)and then play lead over it with harp and vocals tossed in. Incidentally, one of my bluescats threw in some backup vocals.The song was performed in key of G. Guitar is tuned GBDGBD and harp is key of C special 20. Before anyone asks, I did it by ear. I have ZERO tabs to share.(I've tried the neck rack thing but I do hand effects like wah-wah that a neck rack doesn't permit, and my multitasking sucks, so I've just intermittently sang, played lead and grabbed a harp.)Hopefully y'all think it came off reasonably well. Cheers!

Yeah, Jet (My tomcat) doesn't take kindly to being ignored..Thanks for the kind words!

Gee, I didn't think that I'd like another version as much as I did your last one with just the harp, but this one is equally as great. Thanks! PS Love the cat's input. Just like a feline to make sure we listeners know who's really in charge. :-)

They sing well with you. :)

Yeah, I have two. The eldest is the sole surviving cat from a litter found abandoned under a stairwell 16 years ago, and the youngest is a tomcat my wife and I found 3 years ago, wandering the streets scared and disoriented, with evidence of his nose having been broken in the past(large bump in his snout that he has to this day)By his size, he couldn't have been more than 8 or 9 weeks old at the time.

Thanks by the way for your compliment. Haunting was exactly what I was going for...

Very haunting. I like the way you did that.Do you have a cat?
