I figured this might be better than copying and pasting it all.
It cost the person who bought it about $75 aftewr discount codes. I'm enjoying listening to it very much.
It just hit me after hearing The ban'd rendition of "the long Black veil" that the line about the narrator being with another man's wife might be a reference to joe Hill's infamous non-alibi alibi in his murder tiral. Like the narrator, he refused to name the lady and was executed. No doubt this is discussed in seventeen different Long Black Veil threads, right? (forgive me for thinking I had an original thought!)
