Also available in MP3, Ogg Vorbis and Ogg Flac.
This is an old song but not 19th century by any means. I’m posting it because (1) it’s been too long since I posted new music and this was the nearest thing at the tip of my fingers and (2) it’s a great fit for my new 2007 National Estralita, which I bought because it’s loud enough for unamplified shows and love because the sound is so thick and warm.

Wow. I like this. Acoustic blues is always much more satisfying for me than electric blues. Your voice works very well with this song.
Very nice. The guitar sound is quite bright too–seems like it’d do a good job cutting through in an ensemble.
Resonator guitars are incredibly effective technology in their own way. That brightness and punch let the guitar project like crazy.
Tasty licks, and really nice to hear you sing out, Lucas. Brought a smile to my face.
