(Traditional arrangement by Eric Bibb)
The first time I remember hearing this song was on a LP by the late Bob Gibson, a fine banjo and 12-string guitar playing folksinger, popular in the late 1950's and early 60's.
From what I 've learned, this song was taught to a group of slaves by an english or scottish slave owner a few hundred years ago. I can see how this melody and these words would have resonated with those ancestors.

Less is more. Wonderful.

Best version ever .....does anyone know the tuning.... sounds like the low string is way down to Bb any links to tabs?
-
Entrancing. The gentleness, the lack of drama...makes for a deeply dramatic song, in the end!
-
Soul in the deepest sense of the word.
