Folk

Ramblin Jack Elliot-Hard Travelin'

This song was first released in the album called, "Friends of Mine" in 1973. Jack Elliot started his career in 1958 and has forty albums under his belt. He considered to be one of the lengendary folk artist that is left. In this song it has a, what I would say a traditional folk beat where its a soft tone that begans to rise in tone. But as I listen to the song it talks about all the hard things he has done when traveling through his life such as going to jail for ninety days, all the jobs he had, and going from state to state. It sort of seems like a reflection that he has with him and the lord.
