It’s not slide guitar but a fun one on the banjo.

another dead guy, what’s with me? I’ll tell ya what, a slide piece finally. :^) Duane A used an old coricidin bottle as his slide of choice, here Danny Gatton uses a fresh beer bottle.

It's a decent modern cover of BWJ. Love his original of "When the War Was On". FWIW, my personal big three in no particular order are 'Skip' James, Son House,and BWJ.
I think this guy died from Coronavirus due to a mixup with a time machine.

Gatton was fun stuff. Lucky the beer foaming out didn’t damage the guitar!

I've got one DG cd around, uh, somewhere, and while he didn't write the Simpsons theme (Danny Elfman did), he perfected it. :^)
