A great gospel song made famous by Mississippi John Hurt who played it in standard tuning out of the key of C.
Mike Dowling arranged it for the slide guitar and you can find his version on his cd called "Swampdog Blues" www.mikedowling.com
I'm tuned in open D tuning but all strings a half step up, which results to
D# A# D# G A# D#
I'm playing an old Sovereign Stella (with old strings as well ;-)

@01twincam Thanks - thumbpicks come in several sizes and you can adapt them when necessary to your own preference by heating them with warm water. I use, without any adaptations, the John Pearse Vintage thumbpick (available at Elderly - it's the only one I know that has a nice curve all the way around your thumb and therefore really sits and stays well in place (most others like the Dunlop's for example, have a straight edge).12 years ago
