Thanks, Gary. They did do that. I think I first heard the Jack Elliot version.
Some of the other covers where by Chet Atkins, Jerry Garcia & David Grisman, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, Doc Watson & David Holt, Joan Baez, and Tommy Emmanuel

LOL. Well, as close as I could get, anyway.

I never get sick of this song. Mike Seeger, Lennie Breau and David Bromberg also did covers (I hate that word) of Libba's song. Maggie and I sang it at our local folk club the week that Libba Cotton died.

Tom , you really got me laughing this morning. Lizabeth Cotton would approve....I know I do. The picked plus vocal in accent of Feiright Twrannn is just the kind of post that the ol site is hungry for. You rebel.............More please....Alexpnorton

Thanks Steve. I hope she wouldn't have been offended. I certainly meant no disrespect. Glad you enjoyed it. Tom

Funny. Since this was the first song I pulled out of the hat of your collection I was uncertain about Elmer being the passenger on this one. Like I said my recording techniques have a lotta room for improvement but I did a version of Freight Train you might get a kick out of so I'm gonna upload it for the fun of it.
