Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Angola Bound - Angola Prisoners' Blues

I added YouTube links and recording descriptions from the three transcriptions above:

Loenzo's transcription: "Angola Bound," from the Arhoolie CD titled Angola Prisoner's Blues: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYRndZTb6Lo

Transcription by Iains: "Angola Bound" from the 1991 Aaron Neville CD Warm Your Heart, lyrics by Charles & Aaron Neville: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUo440SMVUY

Azizi's transcription: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxDQcK2OVO8
Angola Bound · Aaron Neville
Album: Bed Spring Blues
2021 TRASS MEDIA INC.
Released on: 2021-08-06

The song transcribed by Iains is a Neville Brothers transcription, based on the song recorded by the prison. The song Azizi transcribed is a recording of an Aaron Neville performance of a song that is very close to the song recorded at the prison. It's a pleasure to be able to compare these three transcriptions.
