Kemp Harris - Mother Earth

The guitar slides in without warning for awhile and then the drummer enters banging steadily. Yes! A really great cover of an old tune worth eartasting over and over. “When mother earth is waiting for you there’s a debt you got to pay. I don’t care how rich you are, and I don't care what you earn. Cause when it all comes down, you've got to go back to Mother Earth.” The guitar solos are just as great as the voice in this tasty version of Mother Earth Blues. Shoutout for another cover, made completely over into a Kemp Harris flavored tune – Nightlife. Definitely the 3 o’clock in the morning version of this old Willie song. Kemp Harris
