Here is a different approach to this well played Willie Mctell tune in key of G. going for a little swing feel.

Enjoy

Being a jazzer at heart I like that.

[sustaireblues]

Yep, that is cool!
More school work, swing this time. 

Thanks,

Great, love the jazzy feel too. Is this an original Mctell song ?

[Monkeyhanger]

Thanks for listening all. I believe it was 1st recorded on the 1940 Lomax sessions as King Edward Blues

Nice playing man, loving it!

[Steve Pajik]

You got me snapping my fingers and tapping my foot! Great swing! Nice stuff.

[Big River]

That is really nice. It is good to hear someone take a tune and do their own thing with it rather than just ape the original. Very imaginative. Good looking guitar, too (what we can see of it, that is).

Ian, you should post some of your other videos, you've got some doozies.

This is an interesting one,we cover this song in my band and I wondered whether it was a Willie McTell  original. I found a swing version by Sonny Boy Williams on his complete works 1940 to 1947, does anybody know which, if either is the original?

Georgia White recorded it before McTell, Williams, and the Ted Mays Band, though I don't know if she was first when she did it in May 1936. Pre-abdication, so no King Edward reference.
