Nothin' like that "Cotten" picking. For those who don't know, the photo here wasn't reversed; she played left-handed on a normally strung guitar. Thanks for posting.

Cotten's playing continues to be an ever lasting inspiration to me.

Irene Namkung and I represented Elizabeth Cotten r for her last dozen years. She was our first client. This song was covered by the Grateful Dead and Bob Dylan among others. The photo is by Irene's father, noted Northwest photographer, Johsel Namkung, in concert, Seattle, WA, ca 1974.

@jsu627 Wow, amazing. Why did Elizabeth need representation? I didn't know Dylan covered this song.
