Baby Please Don't Go (Joe Williams/Them cover)

A cover of a song by Northern Irish group Them, recorded in 1964, which is a rendition of a song by Delta blues musician Big Joe Williams in 1935. Incidentally with the band being a fan of Them, and needing more material for the album, including a cover was a no-brainer.

This is my first comment and I feel lucky being here , yet tears are filling my eyes ... I can't believe no one pays attention to the music of early Metalists like "Budgie" . Anyways , this is an old Blues song first recorded by "Big Joe Williams" and "Budgie is just one of many who covered this song . To me , this version is way better than all other versions including "AC/DC's" . You can , in this song , feel the power of "Burke Shelley's" bass hammering and "Tony Bourge's" screaming guitar . This version is the most Blues-driven version I've ever heard among Hard Rock bands versions . If you listen to "AC/DC's" version , you feel that it is a stray from Blues-driven Hard Rock into a straight Hard Rock . I'm not sure about a hidden meaning if one exists , but most if not all Blues , traditional songs are straight about a heartbroken man for example who would die many times just to be with his lover again and that the stronger the love the more the obstacles ...
