grazie Frank x la tua mentalità che dovrebbe essere universale.

oh those anwering guitar harmonies are so nice; this is all nice

Excellent decon and then reconstruction of the song. Makes me appreciate the original recording even more.

This feels like a happier versión of the song. Perfect for the times we livin imo

A gorgeous heartfelt rendition...so beautiful!

In my opinion!
There's a Blues, A Holy Blues, Black Blues and White Blues

- Blues is when you express your melancholy in music and words and it's perfect in every way if it's done right!

- The Holy Blues is when you reach some kind of Nirvana when you listen to it, mostly (if it's not always) comes from black people.

- Black Blues it's all what I said up there, in two words it's the Original thing.

- White Blues let's agree it's a fucking bullshit but sometimes it's okay and rarely perfect.

What we have here is so much different, it's A holy Blues coming from white  people and I don't even know what to call it. 
it's the rarely perfect that gives your goosebumps a goosebumps!

Thanks to Duane Allman and William Scaggs

Long live the blues

Lyrics
Somebody loan me a dime
I need to call my old time used to be
Somebody loan me a dime mmm
I need to call my old time that used to be
Little girl's been gone so long
You know it's worrying me
Hey it's worrying worrying me
I know she's a good girl
But at that time I just didn't understand
I know she's a good girl
But at that time I just didn't understand
Oh no I didn't
Somebody loan me a dime
You know I need. I need a helping hand

Oh... she's a good girl
But at that time I just didn't understand
Ooooh I know she's a good girl
But at that time I just could not understand
Oh no
Somebody better loan me that dime
To ease my worried worried mind. oh
Now I cry. I just cry
Just like a baby all night long. oooh
You know I cry I just cry
Just like a baby all night long. oooh
Somebody better loan me that dime
I need my baby
I need my baby here at home. oooh YES
