介绍: John Lomax, one of the most important and according to some, one of the most controversial charaters in th development of this musical genre, probably recorded this lament of unrequited love sometime in the early 1900's. Mr. Lomax along with his son Alan, Huddie Ledbetter (a.k.a. Leadbelly), The Carter Family, The Ritchie Family, Harry Smith, The Seeger Family, The Watsons, and so any others took it upon themselves to make and/or preserve countless recordings of this music. We can't remember what recording we heard this sad, pretty song on, but when we did hear it we both agreed it would be a perfect tune for two friends to sing.
