I don't think Lightnin Hopkins ever thought that this song would be covered by two white women, but if there is an afterlife he's smiling. Great job. 😊 🎉
Thank you Julie! I saw this track on two concert recordings from them: New York Blues Fest., and KTBA (On the Mediterranean). Both are mind blowing. Of course, a concert is very different from a simple video recording where it's just the two of them. But that's what's beautiful about it: just Megan and Rebecca with their instruments and the music. No hocus pocus, just them and the music...😍😍🎸🎸
That riff can also be heard in the original, composed by Willie Dixon, played by two guitar players, one of them (the brilliant solo guitar player) Hubert Sumlin, honored by Jimi Hendrix, but unfortunately not very much known today.
Julie this version is outstanding. Thank you. LP's authenticity, genuine talent, and vulnerability are powerfully on display here. They are as real as it gets.
Any award they've won is well deserved. What the brothers Grimm have been for German fairy tales, the Lovell sisters are for Roots Rock. They translate them into a music language we can understand and thus keep them alive. I am sure, they will earn an honorary doctorate in music history some day. Thank you Julie. Now I know which vinyl albums I have to pick again and listen to this weekend when the rain is pouring down.
Love Willie Dixon too. Love the Lovell sisters. Looks like you had as much fun performing it as I did listening. Howlin Wolf too. Ok- Etta James and Cream
I love these recordings, thanks! 💙 I didn't follow them on socials back then, so I missed a ton of live stuff. Seeing this for the first time, love it!
