      @@arthurfernandesmeca6657 yes, substantially different, thank you. If people know enough to cite Henry for the quills/flute melody I don't how they don't realize that otherwise it's a different song. I wonder how many people think the idea of Henry Thomas is cool but never actually listen to him. The whole way through. Even once 😄

    I love Del. He's still in great voice. Long may he live. Many years ago, i was lucky to discover The Del McCoury Band at The Station Inn in Nashville and it was the best bluegrass band i ever witnessed. i'm Australian so i don't get to see much authentic bluegrass but i have followed a lot on record. i don't have all Del's recoprds but i have most of them. He has the pedigree having played with Bill Monroe and his sons, Ronnie on mandolin and Rob on banjo are continuing that pedigree with Del and with their own band, The Travelin' McCourys. It's truly a wonderful thing. Thank you, Del!

    This is beyond wonderful! I had the absolute thrill of being a cameraman on stage at the Big Valley Jamboree in Camrose Alberta, this would have been 2015. After all these other great bands with their mountains of equipment played and made a decent amount of sound...Del and his band come out and with only 2 microphones and as I recall one monitor in front completely floored everyone with the largest wall of sound I've ever been close to! It was simply huge!

    I just found out that this song was not written by Canned Heat. "Originally called "Bull-Doze Blues", in 1927, pianist Johnny Miller rewrote the words and Wingy Manone recorded two versions titled "Up the Country" in December 1927 for Columbia and September 1930 for Champion Records." The version I just heard by Henry Thomas in a 1928 recording has the pan flute-like instrument playing the same melody as played by CH
