@zubernick ... i remember watching the Crow Jane video of Skip James only a few years back for the first time and it blew my head apart, didn't know footage of him was around then and have been into his music since my teens. you're right, its incredible! ... very grateful here.

Dude has most haunting voice of all time. Was also a good pianist, in fact he started on piano, stride stuff.

You can see Howlin' Wolf wishing he was this good....

absolutely, priceless

I love how Skip ends the predictable second verse with a blank vocal and a syncopated note. Just incredible,
This isn't specific to this clip, but do you realize how incredible is the internet that we can access all of this so easily? Pre-internet, you could have searched your whole life for this and Killin' Floor and Sonny Terry and all the known greats. Thanks so much for posting this!
