From one of the most satisfying Blues recordings ever. Mr. BG weaves some MOJO into it. One of the few BB King acoustic solos on record too. View YouTube Video "Once this was all Black Plasma and Imagination"-Michael McClure

The BG one is more along John Lee Hooker's version and The Door's version based on that. But like a lot of Blues chestnuts, the song has morphed and been adapted and interpreted and re-interpreted countless times while retaining the same title. That BK version is nice but that video is a little busy. I was surprised to see the recorded roots of it go back about a hundred years.
