“Do Lord, oh do Lord / Oh do you remember me? Way beyond the blue…” – I tried to fingerpick the melody of this old gospel on my acoustic guitar [key of F# major] – of course there are wonderful versions on youtube by Mississippi John Hurt (with a perfect history pics slide show) and by Eva Cassidy (her breath-taking a capella version, R.I.P.)
