(Gotta look around for the Bessie Smith-version.)

Is the car chasin' it or tryin' to beat it 'cross de tracks?

My favourite version of Baby Please Don't Go might just be Memphis Slim and Willie Dixon's version. It's chooglin'.

Page and Plant cooked it up real nice, too.

I don't know if Bessie ever recorded it, I think Big Joe stole the idea of the tune when they were involved.

John Lee Hooker - I'm Bad Like Jesse James

that song is scary as hell. Just bought "Live at the Au Go Go and Soledad Prison." It has an awesome version.

Who cares, the cops are involved too.

I don't really care for Blues... I usually need some cheering up but lately, I heard (for the first time), the Blues version of "American Woman" and I liked it!

Although, Dave would have sang it better...

This would have to be my fave blues tune:

Forty-Four, Lightning Hopkins

[Gringo]

Johnny Winter- Still Alive And Well if i have to choose just one... but anything from him in the late 60's and early 70's are great!

I will always be partial to Night Life, but if I wanted to be alone and just listen to a song it would definitely be....

Stevie Ray Vaughan's rendition of Little Wing. Zakk Wylde said that song was proof that God exists.

Hats Off To Oscar Woods

"Lone Wolf Blues"--Oscar"Buddy"Woods

Recorded March 21st, 1936. It's from the LP: "Out came the blues" (Coral CP 58, 1970)).

Mama mother told me, when I was quite a child (2x)
I say the life that you are living will kill you after a while

I just begin to realize the things my mother say (2x)
Since I been down here I been mistreated this way

I never loved no one woman, hope to God I never will (2 x)
All these triflin' women will get some good man killed

Now I ain't no monkey and I sho' can't climb a tree (2x)
And I ain't gonna let no woman make no monkey out of me

Now I sent my baby a brand new twenty-dollar bill (2x)
If that don't bring her, I know my shotgun will

Nothin' But The Debil--Lightnin' Slim

Well you know yourself little girl
You ain't treatin' your daddy right
You leave home in the evenin'
And you ride the streets all night
That ain't -
nothin' but the devil
Make you treat me like you do
I'm gon' break out just like the measles
Girl I'm gonna be all over you
Well you know yourself little girl
That you treatin' your daddy wrong
You leave home in the mornin'
And you stay 'way all day long
That ain't -
nothin' but the devil
Make you treat me like you do
I'm gon' break out just like the measles
Girl I'm gonna be all over you
Well now break out son...
Well you dressed up early this mornin' babe
You're lookin' like a queen
You're goin' to see your mother
But your mother you ain't never seen
It ain't -
nothin' but the devil
Make you treat me like you do
Girl I'm gon' break out just like the measles
Girl I'm gonna be all over you
