My conversation with delta blues legend Honeyboy Edwards


Yesterday I had the great pleasure of  having a phone conversation with one of the men in music I am most influenced by,Delta Blues legend

~ Mr. David 'Honeyboy' Edwards.

I was fortunate enough to recieve eight full minutes of advice and stories.
He is such a cool cat...and very nice to take the time to speak with me.
This is a crossroads in my musical life...
To have Honeyboy's blessings and share if but a few moments in time,words that will no doubt change this young bluesman's life.
I wish all of you who are not familiar with this great man's work,
please check him out.
I just wanted to share this inspirational story with you guys.
(For those who know me,you know how much I love Honeyboy's work .)
Goes to show you never know who you are ment to cross paths with.
I will treasure this moment for the rest of my blueslovin' life.

I thank yall for listening.

May there be many great surprises and few stones in your passway.

 

THANKS FOR ALL THE LOVE THIS WEEK,...KEEP ON YALL !!!

LISTEN "I AIN'T SUPERSTITIOUS"
BUT I BELIEVE THERE HAS BEEN
"SOMEBODY WALKIN' IN MY HOUSE".


YOU MAY THINK "MY MIND IS RAMBLIN'"
BUT I AIN'T CRAZY.
THIS WOMAN GOT ME ON THE
"KILLING FLOOR"
ABOUT MONEY ALL THE TIME.


I BEEN TELLIN'"MY COUNTRY SUGAR MAMA"
"LOUISE" TO "HOLD YOUR MONEY"
YOU FINE "STREAMLINE WOMAN"
YOU SEE I GOT MY ON CHIPS AND I AIN'T "GOIN'DOWN SLOW" ANYTIME SOON
YOU SEE "I AM THE WOLF" !,
AND MY MUSIC WILL LIVE FOREVER GIRL !
