H.Leadbetter (1889-1949),nacido en Lousiana, es probablemente uno de los músicos norteamericanos más importantes del siglo XX, fue pionero del blues y el folk y sus canciones han sido versionadas por importantísimos artistas de rock y pop.
De juventud y dificil conflictiva, fue condenado a cadena perpetua, pena que le fue conmutada por el mismisimo gobernador del estado de Lousiana según dice la leyenda tras oirle interpretar una de sus canciones.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
This version is from the album 'Alabama Bound' Leadbelly & The Golden Gate Quartet.
*E = 202100 The *E is just really a step up from the E chord to the Bm, The step down from the Bm the the E chord is the open A string
