pretty sure i've posted this before but too lazy to look for it to quote
Belton Sutherland is a blues treasure

if there was no Alan Lomax, and nobody else documented what he did, our knowledge and experience of the history of the people's music in the country we live in would be a fraction of what it is today.

the great film director Martin Scorsese loves this music and he made a 7 part documentary about the blues for PBS

and the doc is really excellent

YT has the whole of part 3 - but not the other parts - or at least I couldn't find them

One thing I like about Gary Moore is that he's not afraid to be himself. Listening to him, he could just as easily be a country singer or a pop singer as well as a blues singer. He doesn't get hung up thinking he's supposed to sound a certain way. It's all about the notes.

great find...and Hound Dog mentions Bukka White at the beginning.
not sure what performance correlates to this, but made me think of this one

I didn't know this guy - got a recommend from YT - glad I listened - - he's got Willie Dixon on bass - it got just under 5 million views - I'm pretty shocked that I didn't know him - I've been into blues for a long time
