about

This tune always remind me of paddling through the swamps when at the end of our 73 days on the Mississippi River. There's some spooky stuff down there. More info at www.SourcetoSea.net

Recorded with an acoustic Epiphone 6-string my mom bought me when I was about 14. My first, and still favorite guitar.

Adapted from "Going to Louisiana" by Lightnin' Hopkins.

Johnn' homemade instruments include the World Famous* Fritocaster 3-String Lunchbox guitar, 1-string diddley bow, and resonator guitars.

This ain't your mama's blues, that's for damn sure ... more
