Another month, another blues song... this time around, I took one of the great
Charley Patton's brilliant tunes, known alternately as
Shake It + Break It or
Hang It on the Wall. I took the liberty of further altering the song, rewriting some of the lyrics, restructuring it slightly, + retitling it
Slide It In, though it's really still his song, even if he might not wanna take credit for what I did to it.
I originally worked on a full-band version of this, but scrapped that here for a more raw + real version: one rhythm guitar track, one slide guitar rhythm take, one slide lead take and a vocal take. As close to live as I can get, one track at a time... Hope you like it, cuz it's rather nasty! And if you don't like it, at least it's short!
