Re: Black Muddy River Cover

Re: Black Muddy River Cover

Thanks all! The absolute best version of this song (in my opinion) and the reason I love it so much is the version by Mr. Bruce Hornsby, which I will place here to * blow your mind. smile

*edit: Hopefully blow your mind. Don't want to be presumptuous!

Love this song! I was fortunate to have heard Jerry do it back in the day.

Beautifully done!

I may have to work on it now; after I get Brokedown Palace done.

Re: Black Muddy River Cover

Beautiful song, and really nicely done Joe!  I didn't know this song, but Jim does.  He stopped this morning and listened to your recording before running off to work.  That says a lot, because he's generally in GO MODE first thing in the morning!  smile  Really great job!
