The Empress of the Blues, BESSIE SMITH. Died tragically in a car crash on Hwy. 61 in 1937 at the age of 43. She was laid to rest in an unmarked grave until 1970 when Janis Joplin bought her a tombstone. This is her first recording released in 1923.

My wife came through again this Christmas (as usual!) and got me the new Rolling Stones album, "Blue & Lonesome". Been listening to it all day and it's fantastic! 12 cover tunes of blues by Little Walter, Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf and more recorded live with no overdubs. Mick sounds great on vocals and harp, Keith & Woody do a sweet job, and Charlie is Charlie. This slow Jimmy Reed blues is my fave so far...

Just letting you know the link isn't working. It's weird...I click both of the vids I posted and they work fine. I even went and right click copied the URL then put it in a new browser page and that worked fine too. I was kinda shocked to find it up on youtube already - it was only released like a month ago. I wonder if it's a licensing thing and is blocked in the UK???
