You're Gonna Need Somebody When You Die

There's no music that hits me hard like Charlie Patton's. His sacred sides are particularly powerful. This one has the added bonus of a little spoken sermon tossed in:
  • Charlie Patton - You're Gonna Need Somebody When You Die
This was released in 1929 under the pseudonym "Elder JJ Hadley". The sermon references Revelation 1 - "When he come down his hair gonna be like lamb's wool, and his eyes like flames of fire..."
