Topic: A cover of "Joe's" John Henry by Black Convoy (who?)

Was Youtube surfing for Friday (5/17/13) Beacon videos and stumbled onto a John Henry cover that sounds like has Joe inspiration stamped on it.  It was just uploaded.  Looks like the video pieces other John Henry song videos (by J Cash, Belafonte etc.).

Same youtube guy uploaded a live version back in Oct '12...live performance definitely not as tight.

Got the the John Bonham drum kit going smile


Tried to search who Black Convoy was.  Limited info...see a very small FBook following.  Found a website...looks like a band doing covers and/or inspired by Led Zep etc. Couldn't make text all out....from Spain?
