Came here by accident, looking for the Johnny Cash version, but God I'm happy I found this version. What a voice.

Before I knew what Lonnie Donegan looked like, I was imagining him to look like Wille Nelson. How wrong could I have been?

Andrew James

Jimmy Page led me here. He says in an interview elsewhere on youtube that along with the American blues stuff, Lonny Donegan's energetic guitar-based performance style was an important early influence. I guess I can see it.
