A beautiful collaboration with Ed Young (fife) & Hobart Smith (banjo).

Personally, I prefer Broonzy's version, of the two. Big Bill Broonzy - born Lee Conley Bradley (1893-1958).
 
The version by Hobart and Young is an older style of the tune. If I'm not mistaken it was also informal, one of the impromptu field recording from Lomax whereas Bronzy's version is a modern studio version in the latter Blues style.

I like both but they are different.
