Naw. Her daddy's James "Iron Head" Baker -- or one of the men in the work crew at the Sugarland State prison farm in Texas, who backed him in the original recording. All types love Black Betty.
Blues people tend to Cover each others songs often, eh? that's why Led Zeppelin was often accused of stealing many people's songs but the thing is they've got heavy blues roots as well
I was listening to this the other day driving down the road. I looked over to my right and saw Ledbelly’s statue. Rolled down the window and cranked it up for the ol’ boy. They need to come here to his hometown and record a whole album of his music.
BassOutcast of course, but it's not that I just don't like this cover. I'm talking about the fact that the cover should add colors to the song, and don't make it worse than the original. But it does not, so why it actually exists? Looks like a parasitism on other people's work. I'm not insane, just a little bit of criticism. ;)
They have an entire series of covers in which they explicity mention the artists as their inspiration. For them it's a way to have fun practicing. Like a drawer who puts his/her work on instagram/facebook/artstation (including their study pieces), why shouldn't musicians showcase their personality and thinking process?
as the daughter of the lead singer of this band that originally played this song.... bravo! My dad liked it too ;-)
Really? You're the daughter of Leadbelly? ;)

No.... she( my niece, Hi Nessy!!!) means my brother Myke, lead singer of Ram Jam who covered the song in the late 70's.
Vanessa Joy Ram Jam great band all talent...
