Eric Clapton recorded it along with several other Robert Johnson songs for his 2004 tribute album, Me and Mr. Johnson. Clapton described Johnson as, "the most important blues singer that ever lived". Johnson not only left an impact on Clapton, but he left his mark in the world of blues with his signature "boogie bass line."

Eric "King" Clapton. Yeah, he's the fourth among blues Kings, together with B.B. King, Albert King and Freddie King
