Back to the OP. I may have said this before with over 500 posts so far. When I visited Chicago, Jaye took us (Walter and I) to the House of Blues in North Chicago, and she got a disc with the musician's autograph on it that she gave me. I still listen to it once in a while.

J.B., from Chicago's South Side, wanted to continue Elmore James' legacy. J.B. played on Maxwell Street for years, and would go watch Elmore at Silvio's, or wherever he was playin, frequently.

So, I figured it's long about time for a classic Elmore tune:



Which brings to mind Bonnie Raitt's cover (with Aerosmith--also includes a cover of Slim Harpo's "King Bee"):

J.B. covering an old Sonny Boy Williamson (the first) tune from 1938.



Here's Sonny Boy, who is a little more articulate than J. B.

John Lee with a cover of Tommy Johnson's 1928 tune, "BigRoad Blues"



Here's Tommy with the original, which I actually like better even though I love John Lee.

A rockin little instrumental tune from good old Lightnin Hopkins, which he recorded in the early '50's, and which he called "Sky Hop." A riff from this was ripped off and used on the old tune "Hot Rod Lincoln"



Essentially the very same tune ripped off many years by Stevie Ray Vaughn, another Texas boy, which he called "Rude Mood."
