Marc Ribot
A Blind Willie Johnson song. I know some will disagree with me, but I think Ribot is definitely in the blues tradition here (in an individual take on the song).FF

It’s Jimmy Thackery’s birthday today. He is one of my favorite hard-driving blues guitarists.

I posted Jimmy playing”Take My Blues” a couple of years ago. If you liked the above, I think you’ll like it, too.
During his Fleetwood Mac tenure. Blues. Poor sound, but it kinda works here, imo.

Mance Lipscomb (1895-1976)
One of those great blues musicians who lived and played most of their lives locally (in his case near Navasota, Texas). Btw, blues and southern folk often flowed into each other, especially in Texas.

It’s Fred McDowell’s birthday today. (1904-1972). He is one of my very favorite old-time seminal bluesmen.
