These are some of "Blind" Willie Johnson's songs that have been covered

by recent artists including Doc Watson, Hot Tuna (Jorma Kaukonen), Peter Paul & Mary,

and even by Steve Miller. I do not believe Johnson is given credit by any of these people,

although Rev. Gary Davis, who used several of Johnson's compositions for years, is.

Those bastians of equality, Peter Paul & Mary, call them "Trad." and give themselves the arranger

credit. Their version of "If I had My Way" sold a lot of copies.
