How about some lesser-name but fine artists?
I grew up with harmonica player Corrin Huddleston. We were young blues freaks living and hangin' in the People's Republic of Brooklyn---late '60s-early '70s. He was a guy everyone looked up to then for his playing and singing.
He went on to become a busy pro, playing the full run of several Broadway shows and working as a rep for Hohner, traveling the country demonstrating their products. He showed me some harmonicas I never knew existed, like a huge bass one.
But the core of his playing has always been blues, and I'll let his playing speak for itself with a recent performance (he also has a youtube channel, if you like what you hear):
The youtube channel where he's featured way more:

That was the deal. This would have been a big blot on Cashs career, at a point where he had a hit TV show and was about to come out with a book about how Jesus had "Saved" him. Maybe it wouldn't have been a big deal if Folsom Prison wasn't his THEME song that opened all of his shows

Why do people do that? Stealing someone's music is a really low thing to do.

It would be in very bad taste to put my own track up here, so I won't---but say that I arranged Folsom as a slow blues---and it works! Great song, 'liberated' or not, and terrific source material.

It's when you do it on the sneak and don't credit (or, worse, don't pay) that you're crossing the line and asking for trouble.
But, hey, what would the blues be without trouble?

An old oracle once told:
If you only got 3 chords, you sometimes try to "steal" a fourth one.
You carry it carefully under your belt,
run home, bang it on the table
and find out that it's just another G7

Before horns were added to the final mix, "Albert's Shuffle".

Hi Mark, your video-choice takes me way way way back...
Maybe we should forget all that "jazz-stuff" and kick off a Bloomfield/Winter Revival Band
. Have fun.
