Re: PBS Blues



Did you catch this  during the Muddy Water's thing ,,
They did not mention Little Walter at all in the voice over mostly over the
great songs and live recording sounds ,,,like a bad AM station does ,,
But as they were talking about the other players that played with waters ,
showing clapton and all that they played JUKE over the pictures ,,
Now isn't that a SOLO Little Walter tune ..
It shows they did not do their homework ,,,
An aside ,,my favorite moment was Bonnie Raitt talking about have wanting to
apply for one of Muddies Waters side interests.
He he and they said the blues are all bad
