She played at New York's Metropolitan Museum last night. Astounding! There is nothing she can't sing. I'll never miss one of her concerts going foward.

I second what Chris Gordon said! What a person of power !

Saw her last night in Pittsburgh at Three Rivers Arts Festival, outdoors, spectacular in every facet.

OMFG!!! Where has this woman been? I just watched her on a PBS show on craft workers. musical instruments and building them. She does Elizabeth Cotton proud.

Agree with Arvin - some verses missing in this performance, compared to Elizabeth Cotten's granddaughter singing on her (Elizabeth's) version. That aside - this is beautiful .....................

wheres spit my juice?

[@arvinrodriguez4078]

nice vox, but why omitt some lyrics?

[@fredrickenglehart2565]

A guess. Elizabeth Cotton and Brenda Evans recorded two nearly identical versions of this song. One had, in the "Got a little secret" verse ". . . I'm gonna heaven in a brown pea shell." The second had ". . . I'm gonna heaven and I ain't gonna . . . ." My guess is that Rhiannon Giddens sang both verses, back to back, skipping a verse to do so, as a nod to that difference.
