Thanks for posting this, jj. I haven't listened to the rarities on Songbook in a long time and almost forgot about this song. It always reminds me of an old friend/carpenter who did a lot of work on our previous house. He was a nomad of sorts, liked his beers...a huge talent who could have made tons of $ but sort of worked from job to job and enjoyed it that way.

I like the 2nd version best btw...agree with Char about the first one being too nasal.
