Year: 1932
The most successful blues musicians during the depression years. They mixed more white elements in their blues and so attracted a wider audience, good enough to make it as a band in Mississippi.
Covers:
Notting Hillbillies [knew it from Lonnie and The Sheiks but used the Sheiks' arrangement; they also sang it for The Kershaw Sessions in '88; see also: Lonely One In This Town and That's Where I Belong]
Madeleine Peyroux [on Mississippi Sheiks tribute Things About Coming My Way]
