A week of folk songs (4) : Careless Love 1 Citation This one's a traditional tune, whose origin is not very clear. Is it from Britain, Ireland, or is it an American creation ? Nobody knows for sure. It was first published by WC Handy as "Loveless Love", and it is more common in blues and jazz than in country music. My favourite version is by New Orleans guitar player Lonnie Johnson. I love his almost introspective singing. Lonnie Johnson ? Careless Love ( buy ) (New York, nov 1928) There's also a great country version by The Delmore Brothers, technorati.com

Can you imagine seeing Otis Spann, Sonny Boy Williamson II, Big Joe Williams, Willie Dixon, Victoria Spivey, Muddy Waters, Lonnie Johnson and Memphis Slim all on the same stage.
