"His style was singular: a form of country blues, bridging the gap between the raw blues of the early part of the 20th Century and the more refined East Coast "Piedmont" sound. He took on the less common and more unwieldy 12-string guitar because of its volume. The style is well documented on John Lomax's 1940 recordings of McTell for the Library of Congress, for which McTell earned ten dollars."
The tune is catchy and probably throws back to the 19-teens. It was already old when he heard it!

This is not a "rare" track specifically, it's from his 1940 recordings.
