Loved this.

having fuzzy memories of posting this before
but not sure

'69 Memphis Country Blues Festival

Pretty sure this is a first time post. I would have remembered that Yank Rachell number, and don't.

With the amount of drugs and booze you have consumed over the previous decades it’s amazing that you can even remember your own name.

Well done!

Nathan Beauregard starting at 09:58 was a living blues cochlea fossil


hard to imagine how it could get more pure

please keep watching to witness Jo Ann Kelly & "Backwards" Sam Firk

Christmas blues, boys. It's that time of year.

the pure emotion of Otis Spann on full display
could it come from anywhere else but life experience
how fortunate we are to watch him perform

when he hearkens back to the bark of a shotgun
and talks about killing his baby
reeling everything else in from that dock
smelt like fishing for bait

Beyond amazing ��

Spann & Muddy france '64
Ransom Knowling: Bass
Willie 'Big Eyes' Smith: Drums

please return with an honest critique of bobby rush live

Bobby Rush was terrific. He said he has recorded 419 songs and remembers 350. He talked a little bit about hanging out with "old guys" when he was 17. The old guys were Muddy Waters, B.B. King, John Lee Hooker, etc. They were around 30. He said, and I take some of what he said with a grain of salt, that he was offered "Hoochie Coochie Man" but told the composer to give it to Muddy because he wasn't old enough to sing it.

The guy is 90 years old and did an hour and a half show without missing a beat. His songs were filled with innuendo which really wasn't innuendo at all. Nice to see a 90 year old bouncing around like he was. James Montgomery sat in for a harmonica solo.

I liked this song.
