They play some damn good blues from local favorites here on the AM stations in Montgomery. My favorite has to be "Strokin" by Clarence Carter.

[rustoffa]

Son House's "Death Letter."

He was a preacher, and got drunk ALOT. Perfect combination for the gritty delta variety. There's a video where Howlin' Wolf tells him to quit gettin' so messed up all the time.

This ain't it.

Wow, I've never heard Budgie's version...I bet they vetted it up real niiiice...yez yez yezz...

Johnny Cash's version of,"Another Man Done Gone," is stellar, superb, and luckier than Luciano.

I once read that Big Joe stole Baby Please Don't Go from Bessie Smith, The Empress Of The Blues.

Talk about a warhorse of a tune. Law'd have mercy!!

Yez Yeah!!

It grooves like a car chasin' a train on a dirtroad at midnite...
(Gotta look around for the Bessie Smith-version.)
