    Can I just say that the one take approach was refreshing and the fact that you continued to play the rhythm while you soloed without missing a beat was a joy to watch and inspiring to listen to

      That’s some John Mayer shit right there

    I'm loving that you credit the right person for the song. My mother in law was astonished after listening to Clapton for 60 years when I explained the true origin of the song. Lol. And what a story too

    Been listening to blues for more than half a century, and thought I had seen all of your videos, Mary, but I somehow missed this one. A little John Mayer infuence is evident, plus your usual tasty licks on the guitar and an edge to your voice that isn't often there. This is easily my favorite of all the many Mary Spender videos I've seen. Excellent!

    I was raised on the Clapton/Cream version, but you take this classic right back to its roots.

    Ok, watched a couple of your covers. But I have to say it, covering Robert Johnson has just earned you a new subscriber. Very well played, and an absolutely beautiful voice.

    I get the shivers every time I listen to this outstanding performance.
    That voice and delivery is amazing, the guitar work isn't bad either.

    Imagine walking into a juke joint in 1938 and hearing Robert Johnson playing this on a Stella or Kalamazoo, MIND BLOWN. Imagine going on TH-cam in 2020 and hearing Mary Spender playing this on a beautiful Blue Vigier, MIND BLOWN

    I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
    I went down to the crossroads, fell down on my knees
    Asked the Lord for mercy said help me if you please
    I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
    I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride
    No one seem to know me, everybody pass me by
    I’m standin' at the crossroads, risin' sun goin' down
    Oh I’m standin' at the crossroads, risin' sun goin' down
    I believe to my soul now, po' Bob is sinkin' down
    You can run, you can run, tell my friend Willie Brown
    Oh You can run, you can run now, tell my friend Willie Brown
    That I’m standin’ at the crossroads, I believe I'm sinkin' down
