Steve N. Req: Bourgeois Blues (Ry Cooder version) (11) RE: Re:Bourgeois Blues 18 Feb 99


In case you haven't already gotten all you need on this, there is a wonderful version done by Ry Cooder (I think it's on his "Into the Purple Valley" album, but I'm not sure). As usual with Ry, it sounds like this is the way Leadbelly would have done it! And by the way, some of the verse lyrics are more forthright, if offensive, than those found above, leading me to believe they are what Leadbelly truly had to say.
