The Harmonica is played by Lester Butler my absolute favorite harp player next to little walther and sonny boy williamson . Unfortunatly he died on the 9th of may 1998 2 days after i saw him at the moulin blues festival in Ospel Holland . Check out his album KingKing from the red devils and 13 the band he was playing in at the time of his death ,did also the opening song on the Rancid album.. forgot now... anyway lester Butler check im out!

[@markmurphy9641]

Oh yeah your right

[@dawudsolomon7616]

I love this song, it reminds me of the time I was walking on the docks and I saw my freind who was on his boat and he looked at me surprised and shocked that he saw me and asked me what am I doing here I proceeded to tell him I caught a fish off the point over there, then I showed him the fish ........... and that's all that happened nothing else...... we went our separate ways ........ stop asking me questions..... leave me alone...( rides away in boat nervously)

This whole song itself was essentially a sample. This isn't the way Burnside recorded it at all. This was all remixed completely into this quirky, catchy song years later.

If this was on vinyl the track would be worn

[@dougcampbell7019]

This one still cracks me up! No chord changes at all. Very few lyrics that just repeat themselves anyway. But don't get me wrong - this is a really song fun to listen to!!

[@michaelcorrigan5580]

Do you understand the lyrical repeat? The whole dialogue with his love lady turns into a Train Wreck. " The Engineer blue the whistle and the fireman he rang the bell." After he found fame with his song being picked up for the Opening Credits of the "Sopranos" he passed away - not rcih for most of his life.

[@GLane-xi6cc]

Wow... it's humourous? It's funny as f...but hey respect He was a Marine. It's funny tho😂. Who r u a damn critique??? lol😮

[@YingGuoRen]

@@michaelcorrigan5580R.L. Burnside didn't write the theme song to The Sopranos. Woke Up This Morning was written by Alabama 3.

[@POWWOWMIK]

It's almost like chord changes are only a part of music, and not even a hugely necessary part.
