Nice! I love that song. Talking about musical "theft" and cross-influences, yet another song where some guy just has to shoot somebody "just to see her fall." Not to take away from Skip James' thunder, but I really like the Derek Trucks Band's take on "Crow Jane": youtube.com/watch?v=eC01c7VuYjM&feature=related |

Yeah! That footage was taken at the time of the 1966 Newport Folk Festival. Toward the end of that clip (and maybe some other places), you can see a feeling-no-pain Son House sitting on the right. Elsewhere, there's footage of the same session in which Howlin' Wolf comes down hard on Son for his drinking, telling him in effect you could have amounted to something still if you hadn't let the bottle take over. Here's more Skippy, from the same Newport '66 session, "Devil Got My Woman": www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB2POWSnStU&feature=related |
