great song, great performance, great arrangement, just tops.

for some reason i always thought it was a female singer .. but obviously not!

great song.

@townesfan10 The record may be sped up from its original pitch, hence the high voice.

[busessuck1]

Cool, this is probably the original arrangement for rolling and tumbling blues
