Midnight Lightning was a posthumous compilation album by Hendrix released in 1975 which consists of post-Experience recordings. One of the cuts was "Midnight Lightning"  I believe that was a few years before Michael Jackson hehehehe.







I'll follow your Smokestack Lightening with...Steely Dan - Chain Lightning (from Katy Lied, 1975)

Jimi had lightning.  Howlin' Wolf had lightning.  MJ was too busy lightening.

Written by Red Lane, recorded by many, "Blackjack County Chain".

Matt Serletic and Bernie Taupin as done by Willie Nelson and Lee Ann Womack - Mendocino County Line (from the Great Divide, 2002).


Amazing how song writers (especially those from the country genre) have historically been so interested in county lines.

Why are you sorry?  That was a huge improvement over the original!
