Level: 2/3
Tuning: Crossnote

“Clarksdale Moan” recorded in 1930 for Paramount was lost to the world until 2005 along with its A side, ”Mississippi County Farm Blues.” This tune was an enigma, everything about this song screamed E position, standard tuning, but the appearance of the slide to end the song suggested otherwise. Yes, there are those who play slide in Standard tuning, but Son House was not one of them.
