        This “Boom, Boom, is a track off TJW’s last album, Bad Mouthin, released 9/18. (He’d previously covered this John Lee Hooker song in 1970, on his “Tony Joe” album, and is one of my favorite versions.)https://youtu.be/ul09fY2JmXc

        Damn. I've recently become a huge fan of Polk Salad Annie in the past year. That song is how you take a basic structure and perfect it.
