Okay, so here's what old fat guys do at 2 in the morning! Just taught myself this one this weekend and thought I'd post it. Basically just the first verse of one of my favorites from way back... "Poor Boy" from the album: The Transfiguration of Blind Joe Death.

  • Yup, it's in open D. Your cover is great! The way I hear it, it was originally done by Bukka White then later by John Fahey. And then done by Leo Kottke. Like you Kottke's version was the first time I ever heard it... way back in the 70s.

  • Sorry Carla... accidently deleted your comment:(

    Anyway... it'll be really amazing when I learn to play this thing!
