Hidden Treasures

[snakes&ladders]

I was listening to Heart's S/T today and I don't think this tune got all the attentioned it deserved.

Don't know why this clip has a Greatest Hits cover as it's not on this CD.

Truly underrated.

Well I realize "Black Betty" is a hit, but I think that version (as well as Spiderbait In general) are not so that's why I posted it.

Oops sorry, I thought there was only one version!

That song goes back to at least the 1930's and maybe further than that.

Yep. It's often credited to Lead Belly though.

This Lead Belly name keeps on coming up, I'll need to get his CD to see what all the fuss is about. Pete Seeger also Worships him too. Lead Belly though is a folk singer from the 30s - that's all I know, apart from lots of Folk artists look to him, even Peter, Paul & Mary have sung his songs!

One song I'm listening to now by The early Hollies - "That's How Strong My Love Is" I reckon is a really great song!
