Steve first saw Mississippi John Hurt at the Philadelphia Folk Festival in 1965 with the Olympus camera his dad had given him for his birthday. Pictured here with an overlay of Christmas lights reminds us of all that was so good, pure and real about John Hurt and his playing. We were lucky to be alive when he hit the stage for a few short years before returning to his home and farm life. This song has given us a lot of joy on stage and with our students. Just play it like you mean it and it will turn out just fine.
