It seems unclear when and where this amazing song came from. Although it tells the story of the 1900 Galvestin hurricane and flood, it appears to have been written fairly recently. Tom Rush, Nanci Griffith, Roger McGuinn and the Chad Mitchell Trio (they called it Mighty Day) have done versions of it.
Anyway,last year in the US Max Ochs played an amazing mournful version of it with a slide guitar and he sounded like Blind Willie Johnson. He said he had heard a preacher doing it unaccompanied and emanating from a sermon. He learned it from Tom Rush's slide version.
SO, has anyone got TAB for this version, PLEASE?
