id bet that robert johnson would turn over in his grave,if he had to hear what ry did to his song.terrible version,it wasnt ever ment to sound like some blues brother,bullshit
@Mr1963chevy I'd bet Robert Johnson is a better man than those who criticize this version or that, and would be happy as long as someone played his songs. If he were brought back from the dead he would be having too much fun playing with all the new tech toys, and want to jam along. . .
Ry Cooder, you either love him or hate him, no inbetween, I really love his arrangement of this Robert Johnson classic, as for those hooked on the more traditional version (Cream, Clapton,etc.) give this smoking puppy a little time meaning a few repeated listenings, no doubt in my mind IT WILL GROW ON YOU! Ryland Cooder is a GOD!!! Justice Musician thanks for the upload!
i don't always like the way he plays, but there is one thing for certain--- he always really PLAYS the s..t out of a tune. ry always brings it. go ry. and thank you JM for posting this wonderful tune.
i totally disagree... this is one of my favourite recordings ever. Keltner on drums sounds fantastic.. creative and amazing groove. The BVs are tight and sound great. The whole thing has this great sense of abandon. Fantastic.

Yaaargh, go get a life and stop trollin` Cooder-fans on youtube.

We saw the same trailer at Home Depot at the parking lot, I thought now that is the kind of trailer Ry Cooder would like.

Thnx Justice for uploading this beautiful tune. I find it a very interesting twist to an otherwise over-claptonized poor ole song by the great RJ...
BTW anyone who says "terrible" must be very confident with his ability to pass judgement on things...
