Made me miss MJH.. Way back in the day I used to walk by the cafe he played at in D.C. & regret I couldn’t go in as I was underage in my mid-teens..

These guys are old enough to sing 'the angels laid him away' with feeling.

i love MJH, and REV HD !!! Happy Traum is pretty good in my book too.

[@mikecurmac]

It's been pointed out I'm mistaken about seeing MJH in the early 70s. I graduated high school in '62. So it was probable a couple years later. Take it easy on me. I'm 71. I don't remember what I had for breakfast.

Me too. Eggs, I think.

Sounds good!

[@johnnybx3254]

Thanks 👍❤️

For this kind of songs, one single guitar fingerpicking suffice, and, adding guitars is often counter-effective. However, these two people made a good blended sound. Great Happy Traum, as always.

Saw Mississippi John at Philadelphia's Second Fret in the early 70s. Your music sound just like him. I remember he tuned his guitar with a pair of pliers.

+Michael Curry Mississippi John Hurt died in 1966 so not sure how you saw him in the early 70's
