Americana Monday 4

Two versions of the same song. First Roy Acuff, doing it in that mountain gospel style, and then delta blues great Mississippi Fred McDowell.

Yeah, there's something incredibly rich about the blues, maybe especially (for me) Delta blues. Acuff is a significant figure in country music history as a showman and entrepreneur as much as for his music.
