This sounds old timey, like they's hounds baying out through the pines, and the cicadas are singin' in the sultry air. I dig.

I prefer the full-on instrument version, but this is good too.

This is an excellent rendition of the old Blind Willie Johnson song. I love the guitar technique of keeping the bass line going while playing slide at the same time. The vocals here are also just right, although BWJ's singing is quirkier and more interesting. A note about the lyrics: I always thought BWJ was telling fellow Christians not to get *worldly* because the work is almost done, but CH may have it right when he sings it as "not to worry."

I am sure the song title is a euphemism for something. . . I'll have to ask Mrs Poacher and see what she thinks.

Nice job of the delta sound - the slide, the twangy steel.
