Reminds me of the story where the preacher ended his sermon saying, "I'm going to get the mayor to close every bar in town, take all the whiskey and dump it in the river. Now all rise for our last hymn." To which the choirmaster said, "Our last hymn today will be "Shall We Gather at the River."

I always heard this tune called the Hesitation Blues

[bluetoad2001]

most likely the greatest band to ever play American music

this song and Charlie's life melt into a haze of smoke hanging over and hung over the highlands

buzz

This was known as "Hesitation Blues" across the tracks.

Great song poole is a genius

[leitros]

Thanks for putting this up. One of Charley's best. There's a great Janis version on the "typewrite tapes" as well. And let me put a word in for Posey Rorer, one of the greatest fiddlers.
