Like a knucklehead, I remember walking through the mall with my mom in 1983 and seeing a big cardboard display for an album called Texas Flood outside a chain record store called "Strawberries." Since all I was really interested in at that point was owning every piece of vinyl The Beatles ever put out, I kept walking, probably in pursuit of new Wallabys and straight-leg Levis a few doors down. Actually, by 1983 I would have been old enough to do my own shopping, and was already hip to my sister's copy of Derek and the Dominoes, so the whole incident is really pretty inexplicable, but I was an oblivious kid in many ways. So I didn't encounter Stevie Ray Vaughan's hopped-up nursery rhyme, "Mary Had a Little Lamb" until years later.

First time I've watch one of your videos. You make it very interesting because I love the history of the development of music. I was showing my son,11, today the Led Zeppelin version of The Lemon Song , is made up from parts of Albert Kings Killing Floor, who got it from Howlin Wolf. I think it would be interesting to have a cd set put out with Robert Johnsons version of a song and then 2 of the best versions by others since. It would surprise so many how much he was rock and rolls seed.

I have watched this video several times. I'm a novice and appreciate your approach. I have enjoyed working through the different approaches of Buddy Guy and SRV. Working through the different styles  opens up the mind to other options. Thanks for the lesson and the inspiration.

If they had taught nursery rimes like this when I was a child, I would have listened. Great track, great teacher and great name ;)
