My tribute to the "Mayor of MacDougal Street", Dave Van Ronk.
This is simply his best composition. It has everything a great song should have, great story/lyrics, an inventive accompaniment and intricate solo's.
I first heard it on his 1976 lp called "Sunday Street".
This is what Dave had to say about the song : "most 12 bar blues have only two lines of lyrics per verse, which is all right, if somewhat predictable. I tried to make this one a little different by giving each musical line a separate lyric, thus reaching a grand total of six lines - and absolutely no spot for the singer to inhale. Back to two lines"...

The song is played out of Drop D tuning and has a lot of unusual positions. Dave has a series of lessons (this song is included) available at Stefan Grossman's Guitarworkshop.
