Paul Black (of Paul Black & the Flip Kings) is a slide player who records for the House Of Blues label. He frequently performs this song in his shows; it might be on his CD.

The singer barred from performing at Constitution Hall by the DAR was Marian Anderson. This was during the Roosevelt administration. Ms Anderson instead performed at the Washington Monument and dedicated her first song (America The Beautiful) to Eleanor Roosevelt, who publicly broke with the DAR over the issue.
