Justin Townes Earle (with a certain, beloved guest guitarist) on Letterman - Harlem River Blues

This is a'great ... very rootsy ...

This particular guitarist plays on a bunch of songs on the actual record, which is overall EXCELLENT, as are the 2 that preceded it, his debut The Good Life, and sophomore effort Midnight at the Movies.

The lady on the Stand Up Bass friggin' kills it, too ... love her, no idea who she is, but she's awesome.
