John Barleycorn

Songs From Nowhere Project

A friend of mine is a director/scriptwriter, and asked me to do a version of “John Barleycorn Must Die” for his documentary on the Appalachian Trail. Instead of doing a cover of Traffic’s version, I came up with my own version based on the original Robert Burns poem. There are 4 tracks (vocals, rhythm guitar, slide guitar, and bass). I think it turned out well. Enjoy!
