I always thought this was PGs most commercial track but it never charted here. Didn't spare the budget on the video, heh?

@panzade,

Fascinating guy. The Brits always go batty for this type of iconoclastic American
I'd read about him but hadn't heard him and when I did, on someone's mix tape, I sat there thinking, 'Who is this?' I thought it was Eric Bibb - who I happen to really love. So I asked and was utterly amazed when they said, 'It's this guy called Seasick Steve.
What an incredible blues voice he has. He's definitely one white guy who can sing the blues (along with a few others)-my daughter saw him at Glastonbury and didn't tell me. I've been listening and listening to him-I'm American and boy do I love the blues and this guy is the real thing- why didn't America discover him? I can't believe he's not more well-known over there. I think he's amazing:

Cut the bonds with the moon
And let the dogs gather
Burn the gauze in the spoon
And suck the poison up
And bleed
Shut the door to the moon
And let the birds gather
Play no more with the fool
And let the souls wander
And bleed
From the soul
A slow hurt.. and it breaks us..
And so down,
Down, down and so plain
So down
When you play some more it seems so
And my friends are past this game
Of breakdowns
And our friends that are lost at sea..
Throw down
And I'll break the wasted space
Slow down, slow down,
If you don't slow down, slow down
If you don't slow down, slow..
Cut the bonds with the moon
And watch the dogs gather
