Magnificent

You receive all these compliments for a reason Edward; you truly are a keeper of the blues, so pure!! Ever think about realising a recording or album?? I’d buy happliy

[@howardlovecraft750]

Same here, but do one with a little bit of everything in it.

[@NoelRayland]

[@kaecake9575]

[@DeathDavis]

Man I’ve missed your playing thanks for another amazing cover!

[@kevincowan1913]

Brother you keep the blues real . You're a throwback . LAWD have mercy.

[@duaneholcomb8408]

Good gracious. Thanks I love this old tune I grew up,hearing it played by old men I,also remember bill Monroe doing this I like the words. He used too. I play it on just an old six string flat top. But its Sounds really good on,a 12 string. Thanks again,,,,

[@patrickcolvin4478]

Whatever Edward does he does it so well. Lovely version of “In the Pines”.☘️

[@dannymcgowan3489]

Your Dad would really be proud of you Edward

[@mathieuschuler366]

The longest train I ever saw Went down that Georgia line The engine passed at six o'clock And the cab passed by at nine In the pines, in the pines Where the sun never shines And we shiver when the cold wind blows I asked my captain for the time of day He said he throwed his watch away A long steel rail and a short cross tie I'm on my way back home In the pines, in the pines Where the sun never shines And we shiver when the cold wind blows Little girl, little girl, what have I done That makes you treat me so? You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn You caused me to leave my home In the pines, in the pines Where the sun never shines And we shiver when the cold wind blows

[@Matt-vb2jo]

Gave me chills. Carolina boy here. Pick it now pick it pick it!

[@josephsanchez8945]

You sound great brother!

[@hernanperez6550]

call me crazy i like Eds version more than Kurts the extra licks he throws in really gives the song some extra grit

[@DjSinxix]

People deemed crazy are usually right. Like the man who essentially invented the washing of hands; Ignaz Semmelweis. He was committed to an asylum for his crazy ideas. Only later found to be true.

[@drb000]

Excellent stuff. Thank you so much for breathing life into these amazing souls!

[@stum9805]

FEELS

[@bmcpsd31]

Should have 10 times more subscribers. Most people are missing out.

[@boataxe4605]

I’d like to think that Kurt caused a whole new generation to discover the old blues guys, much like Clapton and the Stones did in the 60’s.

[@alg3rn0n73]

To an extent. Most of the Cobain hangers on, when asked, have never heard of this song.

[@joshuac9996]

You make it look automatic!

[@shepherdoffire9263]

Sounds damn amazing

[@dewayneherron459]

Loving the ture

[@Sam1628]

So good

[@TheGuitarMan71]

The blues is the classical music of America just like the European classical music, people just don’t know that or get it.

[@gerardmurray5044]

1:31 to 1:46 the goat.

[@gennagorin5551]

Cool as it can be! Like!

[@shinitaisenpai9057]

the first time I heard it, I was told it's called black gal, and that's what they'd sang instead of my girl in the verses. there's so many versions of this song, but I guess that stems from it being an amalgamation of two songs to different degrees in different areas in each version.

[@MrLeadbelly]

Another classic played to perfection

[@108ashtangi]

Just super. Thanks -just what I needed tonite.

[@superhepu]

Twelve string guitar is just super in right hands. Thanks again!

[@suppiluiiuma5769]

Okay, I've got a new favourite version of this song now

[@ThisTrainIsLost]

The first time I heard this song it was performed by Roy Buchanan.

[@hobojankins3282]

Incredible!! Iv been playing harp with you all morning!

[@chobeeboy44]

Such a haunting tune.

[@nancybrownlee6518]

Wonderful to hear that song again - thank you. Nancy B

[@moonwvlf6919]

Lived in SC awhile but the pine forests up here in NH are spooky and will definitely make you shiver the whole night through. Good cover.

[@papaukes2309]

Man that’s good...

[@samhunt9380]

I remember this as a folk song in the 60's.

[@charliebleifeld4913]

Nailed it Edward.Thanks

[@CeZziHardRocking]

Hi, my name is Alexander, I am from Russia. I study English to watch and understand channels like yours. you seem to have instructional videos, it's good because I'm into blues, I like the sound of the slide and the delta guitar

[@Taosravenfan]

Great cover

👍what a sound !! Beautiful 12. strings! I Think I ´ll buy one ,one of these days ! Great cover,Thanks a lot for that ! From France, Chris and Chelsea !

I live in those same South Carolina pines. Is my pleasure to see and hear you play.

[@johnpaul2285]

Awesome Edward. Thank you

[@nellymoriarty_5783]

Love Kurt Cobains version & didn't realize this song was Led Belly classic Love this Edward thanks so much

[@boataxe4605]

Kurt made sure to say who’s song it was.

[@DoctorMandible]

He says it during the show. Not sure if its on the album but its in the full recording (available on youtube). Most of the songs during the Unplugged in NY show are covers and iirc he cites everyone he's covering.

[@AvioftheSand]

Leadbelly and Bill Monroe were the two people to make it famous, but no one knows who wrote it. The earliest versions date back to the late 1800s.

[@CorbCorbin]

Look up the different versions Leadbelly did. It’s a really dark song. It’s basically someone asking the young black girl where she was, because a man, whether her man or a lover is found dead. It’s a fun one to do with a female singer, having the male sing the questions, and the woman respond with the answers. Leadbelly has versions in which he changed things, and Monroe’s version is its own thing.

[@chizorama]

@@AvioftheSand From what I heard it originated in Appalachia.

[@velvetbees]

Your songs are like attending a concert. So glad your music came up in my stream.

[@Tveshag]

Fantastic,so Nice That you delivers old School stuff.Keep it up!Thank you for Sharing and God Bless You.

[@MrPoodleguy]

First time I ever heard this was from a Long John Baldry album, recorded in late 60’s! It had Conditional Release that morphed into “Don’t try to lay no Boogie Woogie on the King of Rock & Roll”!

[@pauljanisch2825]

As usual, brilliant. Welcome back Edward

[@eddielee6490]

You are sorely missed no matter how long or short the time is since your last post. Gifted and so talented many thanks for your contributions!

[@eddielee6490]

It is GOOD to see you again !!

[@lynneg32]

Love listening to you!

[@steampunkerjoe]

Thank You!!! Frankly, never knew Kurt covered it. Truly one of the most profoundly eerie songs ever written.

[@davidhick4303]

Beautiful! Love the quick little history lessons and I love how you always have a clear view of what you are doing with the guitar. Keep up the great work!

[@infoscholar5221]

Great cover of a personal favorite. Thank you.
