i never expected thid from him, i thought i knew his style.

these lyrics come from a long while ago too. from the old prison farms i think

@madFlam1 this is from the cd "my home is in the delta". for this session, fred was specifically asked to play the first and oldest songs he'd learned when he was still a youngster-so yep, you're right! (also, if i remember correctly, he doesn't use bottleneck on any of the songs from this session)

think it's all from one great recording sesion called live at the mayfair hotel... fantastic accoustic stuff and songs he recorded only the once, he steadily gets drunker too like when he does "bulldog blues" and "brooks run into the ocean"

Almost too good

one of the greatest blues musicians of all time
