long black veil









This is a song I've heard so many versions of throughout my life. I started listening to it again recently and then it occurred to me I had heard it so many times before, but never really thought about it. Does that ever happen to you? I grew up in house where folk music was around me all the time so it's really comforting to come back to it. It's also funny to me how much all the music we listened to growing up in the long run ended up influencing what I like now, even though early on I would have said I was sick of folk music!
