Long John's version of the song was inspired by Leadbelly's 1941 Folkways Recording. The song was introduced to a whole new generation when it was included on Nirvana's live album, Unplugged. Kurt Cobain named Lead Belly as his favourite artist of all time.
The song is also known as My Girl*, *In The Pines and Where Did You Sleep Last Night
