...and here's another blues tune. This time around, it's Trouble in Mind, a classic done by everybody from Big Bill Broonzy to Janis Joplin, Muddy Waters to Sam Cooke... this version here can't hold a candle to any of those, but it's still here cuz it's one of those songs that just nails my own personal blues...
Trouble in Mind
(Sorry for the noisy guitar, but at least I didn't try to add in some LP surface noise to make it 'authentic'...)

Trouble in mind, and I'm blue,
ReplyDeletebut I won't be blue always
Yes, the sun gonna shine,
in my back door someday
I'm goin' down to the river,
I'm gonna take my old rockin' chair
And if those blues overtake me,
I'm gonna rock on away from here
trouble in mind, and I'm blue,
I have almost lost my mind
oh, life ain't worth livin
sometimes I feel like dyin
I'm gonna lay my head,
on some lonesome railroad pine
+ lord, let that 2:10 train
ease my troubled mind
I like this one mucho! Sounds modern, but faithful to the old one, too. And your singing is great... and I don't mind the distorto guitar, it works. :)
