@sonoflambeth This is absolutely B.B. King. I've listened to him for about 15 years and seen him perform about 8 times. It's a young B.B, but it is definitely him. A lot of his early stuff has a similar vocal quality to this recording. I still hear this in his voice even now. But that's just me.
@MrGillby It was a hit it sold 3 million copys lorne greene did an interesting version eric burdon performed it but i dont know if he ever recorded it

@sonoflambeth "B.B. King Sings Spirituals," track 16 looks like. Crazy, cause it totally doesn't sound like my memory of him.

I can't believe this is BB King, he's voice changed too much

There's a lot of great versions of this song, but for me no-one beats Merle Travis' original.

@MrGillby i think thie rhythm and music is better on this version maybe you would agree if there was some other singing with the same backing? :)
sambobla 5 months ago
@sambobla yeah i def. like the actual music is better but if you could somehow put this music with ernie fords voice it would be amazing
