Written by Memphis Minnie almost 100 years ago in response to the Mississippi floods in 1927 then covered by Led Zeppelin in 1971 with numerous samples and re-releases since. The song continues to resonate more and more as we extract unsustainable energy from our world.
Today floods are regular seasonal elements of the Australian landscape and in the last 6 months floods have spread further south into Victoria and now SA – The band initially responded to Lismore floods in February this year before performing for the Glenmaggie Blues & Roots Festival adding this piece as a feature in our set which continues to resonate with our fans, we see it a priority as our first release.
