@Gargamelim Thank you for your kind words. Best of Health, Wealth, and Happiness to you and your family for the Holiday Season and throughout the New Year. Keep your Faith.
@kaptainbastard Thank you for sharing. Yes, considering the hardships he endured in his life, it is easy to hear through his recordings he was clearly moved by a greater power than himself. Out of the Mud, the Lotus blooms in the Pure Light. Happy Holidays. Keep your Faith. Enjoy the Season.
@kaptainbastard I understand that and am aware that allot of other music I like is religion based (Masses by Bach Pachelbel and even earlier/later) I was just wondering if there was something special in that particular bible..
@Gargamelim I received this Bible when I attended a local Gospel Revival. A friend's band was performing there. I went home, inspired to perform and post this video. Many times people are truly trying to share, what they think is important, with very good intentions. Even though a gift might not be completely appropriate, it is definitely the thought that counts. May your life go well. Enjoy the Holiday Season.
@Gargamelim The Bible is simply a book. What is really important is how you are inspired by it. Some use it to elevate themselves above others. Some elevate it above themselves and use it as a weapon against others. While others use it to wash the inside of their cup and see other people simply as themselves. Keep your Faith.
Keni- your playing is very inspiring, as is your nice collection of guitars! Are there tabs available for this song or for any of your open D slide versions?
@MATTWARM Thank you for your interest and comment. I hope to eventually tab out more of my renditions, but have you seen my instructional video CDs? On them I teach songs, but more importantly, I teach the techniques and musical theory I use to figure out songs and create my own covers. I believe if you work through the lessons, experimenting with the information, you will have no problem figuring out this song. Feel free to write if you have further questions. Enjoy your practice.
I've been watching this video for a few years... and it's still so fresh every time I come back to it, that pure shattered soul sound only blues like this can truly capture. What is the tuning on the guitar?
@84Pravda Thank you for your encouraging comments. I am tuned in Vestapol Tuning. This is also known as Open D Tuning (DADf#ad). Although, I usually tune down a whole step to the key of C for my voice. CGCegc.
@KeniLeeBurgess Dude, that was amazing. First time seeing your videos tonight and I'm blown away. I can't even express how much I envy your talent. Keep 'em coming, brother!
@Cincinnatus1869 Thank you for your comment. I greatly appreciate your ecouragement and I am glad to hear you enjoyed my rendition of Blind Willie Johnson's classic blues. Enjoy.
Hi Keni Lee. I love your interpretation of this great song. You are really talented! I was wondering what the tuning is.....open D? Keep on inspiring!
@strat63 Thank you Dan for your interest and comment. Yes, learning guitar with the aid of youtube is a wonderful advancment that greatly improves the learning experience. Additionally, please check out my instructional video CDs that are for sale on ebay by searching: keni lee
I think you will find them helpful, if you are interested in digging deeper into this style. Enjoy.
@gmayer90 Thank you for your comment. Yes, traditionally bottleneck style was played in the fingerpicking style creating two lines of music, but I know many plectrum players who developed their ability to pick using their free fingers while still holding the pick. Enjoy your practice.
Great cover! Thank you for crediting Blind Willie. I love Zep but saw on one of their videos tonight Page/Plant as the writers. I hadn't noticed it before. I hadn't heard Blind Willie Johnson's version of his own song before. I can't believe they put their name out there. That hurts. Your slide sounds great and the entire song sounds great. I sort of took the Bible to be a reprimand to the artists who took someone else's song as their own! Thanks for the post.
@MyMoppet52 Thank you for your comment. I was not aware that Zep did not credit BWJ. The Stones did not credit Fred McDowell's You Got To Move either. I received the Bible while attending a local Gospel Revival. I was moved to record this video. Simply the message is, "Make good choices in your life because ultimately it is your own fault what happens to you." Keep your Faith. Enjoy.
@KeniLeeBurgess Hi again. Wanted to clear something up. Zep put their name (Plant/Page) as the composers of the song over the lyrics which I had just seen written on Blind Willie's version. The exact same lyrics! That is much different than not giving credit to someone. That is TAKING credit for someone else's work. I was shocked to see "Page/Plant" at the top of the written lyrics on that song as the composers. I think it hit me hard because I had just been on Blind Willie's site & I love Zep.
@MyMoppet52 I understand. There has been legal issues surrounding copyright of songs for a long long time. Little Richard's battle with Disney over TUTTI FRUTTI. Arthur Crudup Original Version of THAT'S All RIGHT MAMA covered by Elvis. It is a very titious world of lawyers and courtrooms.
@MyMoppet52While it seems Zep is taking credit for Blind Willie, they simply hold the copyright to their own recorded version of the song of the same name, which features different lyrics in the verses, and difference in the orchestration and instrumentation. I'm not saying Zep didn't intend to borrow/use any lyrics/melody in from Blind Willie, thats a common characteristic of blues musicians. Also, the BW is public domain, which means no one actually owns it. No infringement on any parties.
@BobXDarker Thank you for your comment. I not that knowledgable about all this, but it basically comes down to someone who claims the rights to a song suing. For my CD, Good & Evil I paid for a mechanical license to have the right to print 2500 copies of 14 cover songs. It is all a matter of researching through the Harry Fox Agency and securing the right to cover the songs. Enjoy.
Hi KeniLee! I've watched your videos for years, first found you when I was doing some searches on Led Zeppelin. I appreciate your connecting this music and the cigar boxes are great!
@poikaa3 Thank you for your response and continued interest. I hope you didn't mind the email. I send them out pretty routinely. It is impossible to remember everyone. LOL I grew up listening to Zep. I remember the first time I heard them. Me and a friend sneaked into his older brother's room to listen to his records. Nothing like the first time you get into music as a teenager. I must of listened to Black Dog 1000s of times since then. Enjoy.
@video4good Thank you for your interest. I was invited by a friend to attend a local Gospel Revival. Everyone, including myself was given a copy of this Bible. When I came home I was inspired to record this song. Interesting how easy it is to "judge someone" from just a 2 minute video. LOL I would like to think I have a litte more dimension in the big picture. Keep your Faith. Enjoy.
@sicknessguitar87 Thank you for your question. I was invited by a friend to attend a local Gospel Revival. Everyone, including myself was given a copy of this Bible.

Your guitar playing is a brilliant tribute to the greats like Robert Johnson and Willie McTell. Thank you for your dedication to the authentic style. You truly have the delta in your soul. Your playing and singing are a gift to those of us who see the blues as America's greatest contribution to musical culture. From the bottom of my heart...thank you!
@bluesmandoc Thank you. This is a very nice compliment. I greatly appreciate that you took the time to write and encourage my efforts. I love playing and singing this old style of solo performance. When I perform there is only the moment. All the trials and tribulations of the past and future do not exist. It provides an escape from all my woes. Enjoy.
Very nice, is there something special in the bible you held?

If you are interested in learning this style, please check out my instructional video CDs that are for sale on ebay by searching: keni lee
I think you will find them very useful with your practice. Please feel free and write if you have any questions. Enjoy.

Your guitar playing is a brilliant tribute to the greats like Robert Johnson and Willie McTell. Thank you for your dedication to the authentic style. You truly have the delta in your soul. Your playing and singing are a gift to those of us who see the blues as America's greatest contribution to musical culture. From the bottom of my heart...thank you!

@bluesmandoc Thank you. This is a very nice compliment. I greatly appreciate that you took the time to write and encourage my efforts. I love playing and singing this old style of solo performance. When I perform there is only the moment. All the trials and tribulations of the past and future do not exist. It provides an escape from all my woes. Enjoy.
