Memphis Minnie ( born June 3, 1897 )was one of the greatest blues guitarists of all time. She recorded this song for the Okeh label(6707)in 1941. This is the actual 78rpm record. I think you will find the sound remarkable.

Thanks for the comments. I have many more 78's on video. I plan to start posting them on a regular basis. They cover all types of music. Some go back a hundred years.
