Recorded in the late 1970's by the band I was then in, Armadillo Brand, which consisted (at the time of this recording) of myself, Michael Jerome Browne, and Bill Russell. I'm pretty sure Michael was still a teenager at the time. He learned this song from an old 78 by Dick Justice (Michael had an incredible collection of old blues 78's that was unfortunately destroyed in a fire, along with a bunch of his instruments). Michael singing and playing the guitar and I'm playing some blues noodling on the banjo, and adding a little vocal harmony and punctuation from time to time.

Well, thank you for listening! I notice I forgot to mention that Bill Russell is playing washtub bass on this song.
I had completely forgotten that we sometimes used a washtub bass or jug for the bass parts. And we used a real Cajun ti-fer (triangle made out of a railway spike) and washboard, too (Bill's from Louisiana, and really knew how to play 'em...he taught me how as well.)
