Taj's take on the tune is unique to the point that he appears to credit John Hurt purely out of respect for the man and because of the minor detail that the songs have the same title. Have you heard John Hiatt's cover of "Satisfied" on the Juhn Hurt tribute CD that Peter Case produced? It's damned fine, too.
