B B King and George Jones...Great cover of a great song...Their voices sound great together.....This song reminds me of my grandfather and tears me up...

Bill Monroe was a bluesman as well.....Arnold Schulz is who got Bill to play his mandolin blues style...

I always think of Clarance Carter's original classic when I hear of this song, (I never even knew anyone ever remade it) but I love the slower tempo, the additional story, and BB's subtle guitar licks. Great find.

Thank you sir....I found it a year ago....I love both versions but this one really get's me....I think Clarence's version was made for radio play and Possum and BB's version was made out of love and respect for each other and their music...Possum's voice with BB's is pure audio gold...

Susan Tedeski (sp?)

Include Derek Trucks with Susan. Good duo.

Check out Trampled Under Foot (the band, not the Zepplin song). I've seen them a couple times - trio made up of siblings. The sister, bass player and lead vocals has a great voice...reminds me of Susan T.

Tedeschi- Trucks is one of. the best bands out there right now, IMHO- the Bean Blossom blues fest in August is a great 3 day event, bunch of mostly old geezers partying down to good tunes. Been there 3 times, nobody real famous, but all good

Thumbs up for Tedeschi-Trucks band and Joe Bonamassa.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

BB King and Clapton collaboration album Ridin' with the King. Good stuff right there.

The title track is by a Hoosier - John Hiatt.

I saw him at the Indy Jazz Festival back in the late 90's on one of the stages....I've got quite a few of his CD's...Love Memphis in the Meantime...
