FANNIN STREET

Fannin Street by Leadbelly. Song about going down to a brothel on Fannin. I'll be posting more Leadbelly later, who has some very interesting connections with Houston, involving knife-fights and murder and singing his way out of a Sugarland prison.



Fannin Street by Tom Waits. My favorite cover version, so beautiful and sad--a big difference from Leadbelly's original.
