Saint James Infirmary
Here is my version of Saint James Infirmary - one of my favorite blues tunes with a lovely chord progression. The accompanying guitar is played on a circa 1910 Stetson branded Larson. The solo is played on a 1920 Martin 1-28. The singing is, as Leo Kottke famously said, like geese farts on a muggy day.

Nice rendition. Do you think the 102-year-old Martin is starting to open up?

Those two old guitars sound terrific as well.
