Ha! I love your work, thanks for sharing it. :o)

Do you usually have a free hand as to how to design a poster, or do they give you guidelines you have to go by? Quite interesting either way... :o)

Nice choice of music, too, thanks for introducing me to this song. :o)

Thanks Alexandra.

In answer to your question - sometimes I do, sometimes I don't - it's completely up to the client, who might have an idea about what they want, or maybe they aren't sure.

Interesting video and interesting music!

The music is not a cover of a Mississippi John hurt song.

It is "Dirt Road Shoes" (copyright Ken Whitfield 2001). It is written by Ken Whitfield as a tribute to Mississippi John Hurt and to the old time fiddle music duo, (Willie) Narmour and (Shell) Smith. Whitfield is the guitarist and singer on this version.

Hi Ken - sorry for the misunderstanding - I have re-corrected the info. Good to have it from the horse's mouth, as it were.

And thanks again for the great music.

Hi sindesign,

The music is from Ken Whitfield

in remembering of Mississippi John Hurt.

Nevertheless,a very beautiful poster design.

Thank you.

[sindesign]

So it is, my apologies, such a good cover it's easily mistaken. I've updated the info to correctly credit Ken.
