Greetings-- Trying to track down a song I taped off the radio in the late 1980's, Norman B's Seattle Blues show. The tape was destroyed by mold many years ago. Anyways, it was called "Big World Blues" and it featured one of the Walters on harp.
The Chorus was a weird form, A-B instead of A-A-B. It went:
Oh Well, would you hear me weep and moan.
Ain't got nobody, living in this old big world alone...
It's been stuck in my head now for several days, but it's fading fast. Google searches have been unfruitful, and any help would be fantastic. Thanks!!!

Thanks so much! Now I can start looking for a reissue. I knew I'd find it here!
