Leadbelly - Where Did you Sleep Last Night
I got so thrilled with the cover that Mark Lanegan and Nirvana made so why not add the original version.
It is a traditional song that Leadbelly was the first to record it. Lanegan and Cobain heard it and loved it.
Huddie William Ledbetter, (January, 1888 – December 6, 1949) was an American folk and blues musician, notable for his clear and forceful singing, his virtuosity on the twelve string guitar, and the rich songbook of folk standards he introduced.
He is best known as Leadbelly or Lead Belly. Though many releases list him as "Leadbelly," he himself spelled it "Lead Belly." This is also the usage on his tombstone
