Frank Stokes is one of the greats and it's wonderful that he is now being rediscovered thanks to Youtube. His long-time partner was Dan Sane and as another person mentions below, it's likely that Sane was 2nd guitar on this recording.

@Ganzie2000 nah man there's gotta be a second guitarist. franks thumbing the bass and picking the melody at the same time but there's another guy doing some interesting stuff with a pick too. :42 during this break between verses you can hear it really clearly.

@RandalftheGray There is only one guitar. Frankie is playing in C. The chords are C G7 C G C G G7 C hope this makes sense. The song is tabbed in The Country Blues Series Oak Publications 1971 (Stefan Grossman).
