This reminded me that many years ago I bought an album called 'songs from my funeral' by a duo called Snakefarm, which consisted of contemporary (at the time) updates of traditional folk songs. It included a version of a similarly themed murder ballad, 'Banks of the Ohio'. I expect you know the song, recorded many times by many luminaries. Snakefarm's version, available on Spotify and YouTube, is one I reckon you guys would appreciate.

Thanks for the kind words Leon. At every bluegrass festival I attended for years at least one band would do Banks Of The Ohio. smile That is a BIG version of the song by Snakefarm. Gonna check them out further indeed. Thanks for that.

Nice hearing from you!
