Yeah this was Son's original version from way back in 1930, recorded at that famous Paramount session with Charley Patton, Willie Brown and Louise Johnson.

100% agree, this tune & shetland pony blues are IMO the best sonhouse tunes, as you said " pluck a delta blues rhythm that tight & funky while slidn allover it & singin on a different time signature than his slide"
too true mate, at least there are a few people left in the world that listen to this music, all my mates dont know of sonhouse, skip james or roberth johnson, its a sad shame more people dont listen to delta blues

Let me get you. Is this song recorded with Charley Patton...?

Nope it's just Son playing individually, but Charley did record at the same session (including Moon Going Down and Bird Nest Bound) after travelling up from Mississippi together.
