    Gary Clark Jr's cover of Elizabeth Cotten's Freight Train (original) tell me that the blues and history will never die. Much respect to Gary Clark.

    Un bel hommage à une très grande artiste malheureusement méconnue en France.

    There is so much emotion in this song thank u for redoing it and sharing it with the world

    Worth noting that Elizabeth Cotten would play a right hand guitar upside down, so the thumb parts would be on the higher string. Which makes switching back to right hand like Gary is doing a good bit more difficult

      @@1439of2000 Very nostalgic. Truth is I really can't get into more than an hour of this period of music. She wrote “Freight Train” It was her baby she's going to do it perfectly.
      Apparently, Gary's version was authentic enough to be used in the film along with “When the Sun Goes Down”. I've noticed some people nitpick everything
      Gary plays and it gets pretty boring. The masses love his playing. It's pretty much the same critics.
      The ones that do this, are obsessed and think it's their duty to tell everyone that Gary has no talent and he never should have won his 4 Grammys and they should listen to Joe Bonamassa and John Mayor instead.
      Gary has a way of keeping the audience excited.
      Joe and John are good but their sound is pretty tiring after awhile. SRV could play for 3 encores and the audience always wanted more. The same with Gary.
      I'd say Joe and John need to work on their showmanship a bunch.
      Anyway, the critics that follow Gary and try to steer the listeners away are goofy. I intend to identify and steer the disgruntled critics away.
      The difference between me and you is I don't go to Joe Smoes to critique.
