"I Believe I'll Dust My Broom" is an iconic song that later became famously known through Elmore James's cover version, even giving rise to the term "Broom style" in blues. It's a masterpiece that vividly demonstrates the brilliance of his technique in replacing the boogie-woogie piano bass pattern with a guitar and expressing it all with just one guitar. "Dead Shrimp Blues" is said to be a metaphor for impotence in sexual affairs. Robert's somewhat melancholic vocals make this a deeply moving song.
