A beautiful example of a Broonzy-style E blues. Notable is the rock-steady single note base, damped with the heel of the right hand. Conveniently, he uses the open E base for the E chord, the open A for the A, and the second fret of the A string (B note) for the B7. The only guitar break occurs in the beginning verse, with an eleven-bag intro. It is beautiful, and typical Broonzy, though quite different from the rest of the sung verses, which are eight bars.
