Track:

This track is an Odetta original. It has a great build, in the tradition of "Memphis Soul Stew" or Sly's "Dance to the Music." First drum, then bass, then vocal, then guitar, tambourine, and finally the bright pop of the brass. The musicians were Muscle Shoals Sound Studios session pros, and I'm pretty sure that's Eddie Hinton's guitar on there (it sure sounds like Marlin Greene's "Tiptoe Past the Dragon" tracks and there was considerable overlap in the two albums' personnel).
Odetta, 1930-2008.

I've been looking for these songs for the last ten years. I owned the album but it disappeared over the years. I'll still keep looking for the rest of it. It was great to hear Every Night and Hit or Miss.
thanks
