Emmylou Harris & The Band - The Last Waltz (evangeline).mpg

From the album Tomorrow Is My Turn

The landscape of American music is littered with the ghosts of the unknowable and mysterious blues musician, scratchy voices on a 78 conjuring up an era and an energy long gone. No one represents this better, perhaps, than Geeshie Wiley, who, along with equally unknown L.V. Thomas, recorded a handful of sides for Paramount Records in 1930–31. “Last Kind Word Blues” calls to me in a way that I can’t really explain, but when producer T Bone Burnett suggested it for the record, I knew instantly it was the way to begin.

Guitar instrumental 
All done by me. All copyrights to myself. 
Cover art is of my tiny guitar 

I apologise for if there’s any wobbles in the strings I’ve been having some pain in my hand.  
This instrumental is uplifting and high 
There are lyrics on the way but I still need to get some recording equipment until then. Singing is not a possibility.

Gentle On My Mind
