How does someone give a thumbs down to this ???.Elmore James!!! All thumbs up for the man who inspired us to cry on the slide guitar.. Elmore!! The greatest!!!
This is, I think, one of the greatest blues performances of all time. The vocals are incredible--and so is the guitar work. Elmore is generally known as the King of the Slide Guitar. I agree with that estimate. After all, just listen to the brilliance of his break here. But I think that his vocals were even greater. He absolutely sells it, each and every time.
Homesick James should also be heard but Elmore is a King...rich men come and go but the world will always listen to every nuance of Elmore James...and they should ~!!!
I wake up early in the mornin' in my bedroom all alone.. I don't find my baby and I wonder, I wonder, where she gone..
My baby's gone and I'm so tired, it's a cryin' shame.. Yes, you know I'm so tired, it's a cryin' shame..
Ever since she been gone you know my life don't feel the same.............
