Canned heat bluze,
Here is a little traveling story about this song.
As you can guess, this song has the soul of me, and not only me, but of a lot of whom I met in my travels, this song is a international travel song That I have been playing and always, everyone digs it for sure, and my blues version, well, between the soul, and the blues that a traveler can get on a journey, well, needless to say...
an example, last day in Peru, after a year there exploring the unbeaten path, discovering a whole new world, I decided to go to a gringo hotel as I waited for the plane, There was a Frenchman with a guitar playing in the restaurant, a German sitting with him, and some how or another, a Englishman and a Canadian ended up in my room along with them, I already gave away all my possessions in Peru, but I had my slide with me.
I proceeded to play this song, and well, it hit all our souls, and even the Frenchman and German new the words in English, and we all just sang away at this, as it truly is the international song of all time, any tramp that goes where others only dream of, well, not only do they know the song, they live it, all in the search for whatever is around the bend.
An using a guitar in my travels, has taken me, to places, that a tourist can not find, its all apart of the cosmic plan of thumbetis, god of the hitch hikers, and add the good karma of only doing good and doing no harm, well, what a wonderful journey it has been,
and now, after a break, of 2 years or so, I'm getting ready to do it all again, so for the next 3 months, I am playing and playing and writing and playing, getting ready for the next travel of where ever it may lead.
Peace to all that understand, what the soul of this song truly means, and may this version, if you decide to play it yourself Like I did, bring you all the cosmic karma of what it all truly means in a journey, where life is great where you never would expect it,
Peace and God speed..
Douglas
