Blind Roosevelt Graves and Brother – “Woke Up This Morning (With My Mind on Jesus)”
The late folk guitarist and ethnomusicologist John Fahey called this track “the hottest ‘religious record’ ever made.” It’s hard to argue with him. At first, I thought that the percussion was being made by spoons, but according to Fahey it’s a tambourine. (It still sounds like spoons to me.)
This track can be found on Fahey's excellent Revenant Records collection, American Primitive Volume 1.
