Mississippi John Hurt - "You Got To Walk That Lonesome Valley" (1966)



Happy Friday Friends,

Here's the legendary MIssissippi John Hurt taking us into the weekend.

This is from a performance (episode 36) of Pete Seeger's short-lived folk-centric music program, "Rainbow Quest", which aired originally on New Jersey's own UHF channel 47 (WNJU-TV) in '65 & '66.

We're not sure if this is actually Hurt's last television performance, but its definitely one of his last as he would die of a heart attack in November 1966.

Don't die til you're dead, kids!
