Does anyone know if Frank's version is available on SSMVGD, any website etc? It was just awesome at Edinburgh's Liquid Rooms last year.

I have a Muddy Waters version somewhere. And did Beck not cover it as well? Not as good as Frank and the Catholics though

They played it live when I saw them in Philly, but the only recorded version I ever found was a Son House version, which is acapella

Someone told me that Beck has recorded it. Any Beck fans out there? Is it on an album/B-side? Time to record it yourself Frankus.

Beck did it on a live radio broadcast for sure.

Anybody know who wrote it and/or popularized it?

Don't think I can help. I heard it was a Blues standard, and that Muddy Waters did one of the more famous versions (I have that version somewhere). I will indeed track down the White Stripes vewrsion sloe joe - I love that song
