HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "Notable instruments" is not recognized
John Paul Hammond (born November 13, 1942, New York City, United States) is an American blues singer and guitarist. The son of record producer John H. Hammond, he is sometimes referred to as "John Hammond, Jr.".
Background
Hammond is a son of the famed record producer and talent scout John Henry Hammond, Jr. and his first wife, Jemison McBride, an actress. He is a descendant of Cornelius Vanderbilt, the patriarch of the prominent Vanderbilt family. He has a brother, Jason, and a stepsister, (Esme) Rosita Sarnoff, the daughter of his father's second wife, Esme O'Brien Sarnoff. Hammond's middle name, Paul, is in honor of a friend of his father, the actor Paul Robeson. The younger Hammond was raised by his mother and saw his father only a few times a year while growing up.
He began playing guitar in high school, partially inspired by the album Jimmy Reed at Carnegie Hall. He attended Antioch College for one year but dropped out to pursue a music career. By the mid-1960s he was touring nationally and living in Greenwich Village. He befriended and recorded with many electric blues musicians in New York, including Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, the Hawks (later known as the Band), Dr. John and Duane Allman.

In Your Arms Again
by: John HammondI don't care how long it takes
I don't care that the levee breaks
The wind may blow and the cloud may rain
But I'll be in your arms again
I can't wait for the sun to rise
I don't care if I've covered mile
First thing smokin', I ain't jokin'
I'll be in your arms again
I got somethin' that just won't wait
I'm not about to hesitate
Or this feelings I've got now won't explain
When I'm in your arms again
This old road takes its toll
I'm as tired as the day is old
My love [Incomprehensible]
