This rendition of the very old song, "St James Infirmary", comes from Allen Toussaint's brilliant 2009 release, "The Bright Mississippi", produced by Joe Henry. The track features Toussaint on piano with Marc Ribot on guitar.

Robert W Harwood has written a wonderful book about the history and evolution of this song. Here is a link to his blog:

the ending is a surprise and it works, as does this whole series of moody dissolves. An uncommonly good homage to a piece of work that complements, not overwhelms, the sound. Thanks!
