It's occurred to me that far too little attention and respect is paid to this genre. I prefer the Chicago blues, but will listen to other types. Feel free to post a song you like. I only ask if you do post links here keep them within the genre and include ONE link per post.

Did you know that his last slumber, he dreamt of his funeral thronged by family and friends? He discussed it w/ his crew. 20 hrs later, and before he would ever sleep again, he translated ... Quiet, doesn't this tune just NAIL The Texas juke-joint vibe? Reminds me of just rollin' down our vast highway ... Chitlin' con Carne http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um1lA9m4wL0&feature=related |
