Topic: She’s Gone - Mark Spoelstra - earlier version?

[MarkC]

Does anyone know if this was an old song? Someone on the old Mudcat forum said it was a Cannon’s Jug Stompers song, but I haven’t found it (at least not with this title). It’s not Cannonball Blues (Solid Gone) by the Carter Family:



Spoelstra’s version was on “The Blues Project” collection on Elektra, 1969.

Answered my own question after searching for the full first line.

Jim Jackson:



It was also covered by the Youngbloods.
