Those are some beautiful pictures Steve.
Define early.
Define "half naked college girl!" and "the benefits of working in academia".
half naked college girl: (from Lee's dictionary) a girl of college age (legal) that wears only 6 square inches of clothing on her entire body.
half naked college girl: (from Lee's dictionary) a girl of college age (legal) that wears only 6 square inches of clothing on her entire body.
the benefits of working in academia (see definition for half naked college girl): work for very little pay and even less respect.
Probably the BEST story teller of all the greats. I think "Bourgeois Blues" is one of the top 5 blues songs, ever. And, "Please, Governor Neff, Be good 'n' kind" is without peer as to its story and the influence the song had on a life.

I thought I'd just mention a few to see if we have any others in common.
Beefsteak when I'm hungry,
And whisky when I die,
Good lookin' women whilst I'm livin',
And heaven when I die,

Nice list, Doctor. "Whoa Black Betty, Bam a Lam!"
Where are Brownie McGhee and Sonny Terry? Saw them play once. Wow.
I would place Lightnin' Hopkins at the head of the list (Check out Mel Blanc's "The Blues according to Lightnin' Hopkins" fer sum serious down home, Texas style), and add Otis Taylor to the newer list. John Hammond fits in there too
I got to interview Rory Block for the college radio station when she came to town a few years back. Amazing, beautiful woman, great musician.
Hmm. Sunday school teacher, Blues aficionado, maybe I do have a twin out there. Thought that was a buncha bunk.......
Ohh I guess I got off topic..... Is Maine like within uh, flying distance of Kansas?
Any tips on getting an 084 with a 41" bar into a carry-on bag????
Teach,
I stand corrected. I was running out of room. Great vetting job on the list. I was listening to Etta James this morning and realized I left her off the list. Not a comprehensive list, just off the top and what I often listen to.
And, Lead, you've reminded me of "Little Schoolgirl" by Son Thomas. I have a Son Thomas disc loaded as one of my six CDs currently loaded in my Runner, so I'll listen to "Little Schoolgirl" at lunch in your honor, or lack thereof, as the case may be.
Blues, BBQ, Bible and Big saws,
Joat

I wasn't trying to correct you, Dr. Joat. Just adding my two wooden nickels' worth. Your list got my mind thinking about folks I hadn't listened to in a while. I'm home sick today, which almost never happens, and so I am listening to Bessie Smith.....the CD case was seriously dusty......
John Cephas and Phil Wiggins' Hard Times describe our economy of late...
J. B. Lenoir
Janis Joplin.....Big Mama Thornton's "Ball and Chain" is a must hear
Hound Dog Taylor
Moses Rascoe
Jimi Hendrix
Blind Lemon Jefferson
Pink Anderson
Champion Jack DuPree....."Pig snoots and sauerkraut, make yo' belly stick right out!"
Wheeeeeee! Great thread! Cool how we manage to stay on topic!
chainsaw chainsaw chainsaw chainsaw chainsaw.... see, stihl on topic!

Good point PB.
My dad went to a small dairy farm shortly after morning milking and was offered a beer. When he asked, "Isn't it to early for beer Cliff?"
Cliff Said, "Beer don't know what time it is."
But, will they respect me in the morning?
