Yah good times three men, playing pool one day,


but someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble, for me... anymore.

Goodbye girl better get gone Skit Gone Had a great time
Got beat pretty good Had a good thing going Got more than you gave
Goddamn but now I'll give it to you Girl, you got a game
Goodbye girl better get gone Skit Gone Had a great time

yah hold on darling you're leaving to fast,
but someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble, for me... anymore.

Goodbye girl better get gone Skit Gone Had a great time

but someday baby, you ain't gonna trouble, for me... anymore.

Say what you will, but one of the good things about living in Mississippi is seeing these bluesmen and blueswomen live on a regular basis, usually in small clubs real late at night. R.L. was the real deal with zero apologies.

If you like R.L. Burnside and other Delta Musians, I highly recommend that you take a look at the photographs of Bill Steber.  One of his photos of R.L. Burnside can be found at http://www.steberphoto.com/zow...R.L. Burnside - Bill Steber  Bill is an outstanding documentarian of deep south and he is great guy to boot.

Yes, and notice how the cadence of Dylan's number was directly influenced by Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business".  It's an old R&B style.

R.L Burnside is to the blues, what Cowboy Troy is to country! Except that I like this a little better. (Although "I play chicken with the train IS kinda entertaining!)

So yeah. I thinks its a good thing.

The entire album is amazing. The basic blues make an excellent base for some zany and irreverent mixing.

"No lyrics available" WTF

RL Burnside wearing bizarre helmet with Freemason-like symbols on it 

RL as Freemason on a Rampage...or sumpin'. Can you imagine the craziness if RL had teamed up with Screamin' Jay Hawkins?

Ah, the music I grew up to, hearing it in juke joints and roadside clubs all through NC - the Castaway, the Red Door, the Embers Lounge, the Starlite. A culture paved over and replaced by McMansions and generica.

I'd rather have the juke joints . . .

You might have known him before you could name him. His song "It's Bad You Know" was used during the closing credits of "The Sopranos."

My dad is a great guy, but can't sing and can't play the guitar at all.  Burnside is fantastic.

R.L. Burnside is the Real Deal. 
I was blessed to see him live once before he passed away. 
It was never about money or fame or trying to fill a marketing niche or figuring out whatever demographics to cater to.  
It was just about the music...  
If you want visuals to go along with it, check out the DVD You See Me Laughin'. 

And he was never afraid to explore new territory like this cut with Lyrics Born ( and notice how the cadence of their part follows stroke for stroke Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues" ) .  Evolution and Alchemy!  Had to give it a 10.

Of all the other interesting and funky tracks from this album besides Glory Be, why pick this one?
EDIT: Not that I don't like this song, but I would humbly suggest Goin Down South (also with Lyrics Born) and Rollin and a Tumblin' as more interesting options.  (I certainly understand that it would be hard to play Stole My Check even though it kicks A$$. {#Devil_pimp})

For anyone liking this, do check out the rest of the album.
