@thinkbigize otis rush is the guitarist in the background - sleep is playing the guitar here though - his strumming style isn't very dramatic but it has a full sound don't it?
Its also used extensively in Blue Grass and other rock'o billie music. It fits right in with this song. Even Zeppelin used the mandolin in some of there songs.
One of the greatest bluesmen, in my opinion, with the undisputed master of blues mandolin, Yank Rachel. With harp virtuoso Hammie Nixon, they were transcendental.
he was born about fifty miles away from me. they put on a show on johns' porch every may in brownsville honor him
