Classic tune Nofi! Have you heard The North Mississippi Allstars version?



They do a great cover of Juinor Kimbrough`s "All Night Long" too!

Got a Jimmy Reed CD in the player in my car right now. It sees a lot of action ;D.
I've played several clips from this thread for my wife. She says she gets why me and that nofi guy get along so well ;D.

In 1963 I bought Charlie Rich's "Big Boss Man" and Lonnie Mack's "Baby What's Wrong" within a few months of each other and noticed that both were written by Jimmy Reed. I hadn't heard of him until then but figured it was time to look for more.
