WC Handy's song Yellow Dog Blues. I was listening to PRI like I do every morning, this morning I heard about the Blues Challenge so I grabbed my guitar and set up a digital recorder. My wife and I live in an RV in Old Town, Fort Collins, Colorado and there is plenty of construction going on right now. Maybe it helped out the recording? Hope you like the song, I had fun recording it.
