Merci.

@PeluMaad - well I am as a big a fan of Taj as anybody but this video is pretty obviously NOT a live performance of Corrina and as it's the original version of the song from the album, then Taj is lip-syncing/miming it, whatever you say!

Fasza !!!!

WOW! I love it, thanks!!!!

@PeluMaad yes there are older songs about a girl named Corinna, and yes Taj Mahal didn't invent the 12-bar blues, but lyrics sung here WERE written by Taj Mahal and the strum pattern and tempo of the song were conceived by Taj & Jesse Davis. My main point was that Taj Mahal DOES NOT lip-sync. Blues has a long & storied history and many well-known songs have passed through many hands, but that doesn't mean taking a few words from an old hymn negates someone's creativity and effort to make it new

There is no way anyone in their right mind could seriously not like this. If you have given this video a thumbs down, what are you doing with your life? You need to find something better to do than hang out on the internet and dislike great works of art just to try and piss others off. AND DATS REAL!

Taj Mahal - This giant of a man brings music into the world and, if you listen to more of his stuff, at the same time brings the world into his music. Great respect and thanks for sharing!

This is one of those old songs from the shared tradition that existed before record companies segregated American music. You can find Appalachian fiddle and banjo versions and Mississippi string band versions. If someone "wrote" it their name was lost long ago.



How is it possible to be so utterly fantastic?
