Bob Dylan covered it in 1970 and Buddy Guy covered it in 1979. Hope this helps! ; )

Hello modifiedcontent
He certainly was a serious blues guy and a great talent. Check out the CD box set 'Chicago Is Just That Way' for his recordings with Sonny Boy Williamson (Rice Miller), Walter Horton and Big Maceo. They're fabulous!

Best wishes from the U.K. and thanks to shortrax for posting this.
