GUEST,WmDelacroix Origins: I Know You Rider (86* d) RE: Origins: I Know You Rider 09 Jan 06


"Traditional" seems a good credit for this one. Leadbelly's "Easy Rider" recording for Folkways doesn't bear much resemblance to The Dead's "I Know You Rider"--it's significantly different in both lyric and melody, the only common thread being the term "rider." It seems to be a standard of the blues lexicon. --- William Delacroix
