Where Did You Sleep Last Night?

Leadbelly - "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" (2009) - Stardust Records

Hello Friends,

Lordy, lordy.  We've got some great country-folk-blues on the turntable tonight courtesy of Mr. Huddie William Ledbetter.

Perfect soundtrack to a booze-soaked, hot and swampy Memorial Day Weekend while sitting under a tree with a cold cocktail in one hand and the leash of a mangy mutt in the other! 

This compilation contains the hits "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?", "Bourgeois Blues",  "Goodnight Irene", "Looky looky Yonder / Black Betty / Yellow Women's Doorbells", "John Hardy" & "The Gallis Pole".

Yes, "Black Betty" is that "Black Betty" and Led Zeppelin did, um, borrow heavily from "The Gallis Pole" for their own, "Gallows Pole".

RATING: 4.5 heads were found in driving wheels but his body was never found out of 5
