A song written by Robert Johnson...but you guys knew that already. Anyway, have the Stones ever performed this in concert? Has Mick Taylor? I never heard of a recorded version by them. I guess it was Robert Johnson's first recorded song, but it was only a minor hit. Too bad...I think it's a great song. Very cool guitar. Taylor could handle it!
...dunno if it was the very first song but definitely from that first session Monday 23 November 1936 San Antonio Texas - A second take of the song has never been found
I think this was Johnson' first single: "Terraplane Blues backed with Kind Hearted Woman is released on the Vocalion Label and becomes a modest regional hit selling about 5,000 copies".
