“Who’s that writing? John the Revelator.”

Hope you enjoyed this combination of Son House, Blind Willie Johnson, and Nicolas Poussin.

Update: Added quote marks to the title and updated an embedded video.

Update: Added some periods. Also, I needed to add a new video due to an earlier embedded one no longer existing.

Good to see the originals! That track was introduced to a wider/younger audience were when it became the second part of the White Stripes track ‘Cannon’ from their debut album in 1999

  I have heard the White Stripes version myself and I enjoy it, but I will always love Son’s raw call and response execution and Johnson’s gutteral vocal stylings. In fact, I heard the originals before I heard the White Stripes version.
