I learned this song on the piano around age 14. I originally found the song from a music book of collected blues songs. The title is from the bible verse at Matthew 16:23. piano: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ndGnktCnmZemhps.html "Get Thee Behind Me Satan" by the Almanac Singers (The Almanac Singers, 1940 to1943, were founded by Millard Lampell, Lee Hays, Pete Seeger, and Woody Guthrie. ) "Boss comes up to me with a five-dollar bill Says, ""Get you some whiskey, boy, and drink your fill"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind A red-headed woman took me out to dine Says, ""Love me, baby, leave your union behind"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind On the Fourth of July, the politicians say ""Vote for us and we'll raise your pay"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind Oh, then the company union sent out a call They said, ""Join us in the summer, we'll forget you in the fall"" Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind If anyone should ask you your union to sell Just tell him where to go, send him back to hell Get thee behind me, Satan, travel on down the line I am a union man gonna leave you behind"

Nice. Best cover I herd.

That's pretty, Elijah. I always noticed that his version on the '28 recordings was fast, which was atypical for Hurt. Mystery solved. Have you ever played it on a variable speed turntable or digitally through an app that can vary speeds to hear how it should have sounded?

I haven't, at least as far as I remember. I bet Peter Keane has, though.

I'm from West Virginia - Boone County, to be exact, not far from Logan County where Dick Justice was from. Never thought of this as a West Virginia song until now.

I just love your energy, Its so contagious.Nothing to say about the performance, its just next level.Just wanted to ask - would you consider playing something from John fahey?Like red pony or spanish dance? Would love to see you play just about anything from him! Keep uploading anyhow, your great!

@elijahwald Ай бұрын

Thanks, and sorry-I’ve never learned any Fahey pieces.

@wolfgangvonsusselhousencai4009 Ай бұрын

Thats alright.Ive requested for Fahey covers to many and for some reason no one likes his style ive found out 😂

@holzhausholz8215 Ай бұрын

Would love to see a cover Jump in the Line. I haven't been able to find anyone playing JS's version and it's great!

@elijahwald Ай бұрын

I had it worked out at one point, but now can’t remember the basic luck. I need to go back and recapture it.

Yes, it was -- he obviously is a fan of Rodgers.

Just beautiful. Do you sell the sheetmusic for this fingerstyle? This is perfection!

@elijahwald Ай бұрын

I'm sorry, I don't. It's fun to play, but it would be a lot of work to transcribe.

@gregjoynt1507 Ай бұрын

Hi Elijah, nice version of the song. Mind sharing that picking patern?

@elijahwald Ай бұрын

I'm not sure what you mean -- it's standard alternating base fingerstyle, no particular pattern. There's one lick I borrowed from Blind Willie McTell's "Kill It Kid," but otherwise it's just how I play.
