Thread Name: Best Slow Blues Songs
Subject: RE: Best Slow Blues Songs
My first reaction upon seeing "Since I Met You Baby" and "Since I Lost My Baby" both mentioned in the same thread was: "Aren't they two verses to the same song?

I was wrong ~ they are indeed two different, but eerily similar, pieces. A quick search also revealed that both are "credited" to Ivory Joe Hunter. Of course, in the world of internet lyrics and tabs, there is usually a lot of confusion over who the person might be who is named with a song ~ usually the person (or one of several people) who recorded it, very rarely the actual songwriter escept in casesd where the performer was the composer.

I'm really intrigued by that "mildly mysterious" website. It would be nice to know more about who's responsible for it ~ lots of great old songs, with arrangements that look, at first glance, to be worthwhile. I'll have to delve in a little deeper to see it the tabs are really all that helpful.
