Earlier this month, for the premiere of “Man In Full” on Netflix, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club released three different mixes of their cover of “God’s Gonna Cut You Down” featured in the series.
This song has quite a history. There have been many great covers and reworkings of the song over the years.
About the song:
‘There are layers of stories and history in songs, we’d like to give a nod & thank you to those who originally recorded some of the first versions: Golden Gate Quartet 1946-1947, The Jubalaires 1947, Bill Landford & The Landfordaires 1950, Odetta 1957. We discovered the song being fans of Odetta and after Johnny Cash’s recording was released discovered others. We initially tried doing a version ages ago, so it was curious being asked to approach the song again in a few different ways for this series’ ~ Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
