Usually don't get to listen but on vacation!
Brian D 10:42:53 AM
Can't go wrong with that Chess Box Set. Some great blues boxes came out in the 90s. Muddy Waters box another great one.
Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) 10:43:59 AM
I've gotten a lot of mileage out of my copy from PREX
Brian D 10:47:27 AM
Can never get enough Slim Gaillard (yes the 2 L's sound like L's!)
Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) 10:47:51 AM
Brian has been helping me pronounce his name for years
Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) 10:51:32 AM
Gene really sounds like a Jimmie Rodgers sound-alike on this cut
Brian D 10:56:57 AM
I see Del McCoury do Just Because at just about every show! He and the band do a great take on that
Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) 11:12:02 AM
Note the "T for Texas" lyrics here -- also used by Jimmie Rodgers in his famous Blue Yodel
DubNP* 11:24:06 AM
Thanks and praise Sonny Boy.
Brian D 11:52:27 AM
Love this version of Little Delia.
Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) 11:53:02 AM
I seem to recall Sean Wilentz writing well about the history of the song in his Bob Dylan in America book
Sonny Boy Williamson III (host) 11:56:38 AM
Thanks for listening all!
