A take on the NRA idea of arming teachers…
Mean Mistreatin’ Mama, by Elmore James.
Mean Old World, by Rev. Gary Davis.
Old Sometime Blues, by Frank Stokes (1929). With Will Batts on violin.
Got To Be Some Changes Made, by Otis Rush.
Happy New Year, by Lightnin’ Hopkins (1953). I know it’s a bit early, but hey, at least Willard M. Romney won’t be president in two months!
Soup Bone, by Eddie C. Campbell (1968).
Woman You Must Be Crazy, by T-Bone Walker (1966). This is from a great live performance by T-Bone in the UK, with Jazz at the Philharmonic.
Same Old Blues, by Freddie King (1934-1976).
Sloppy Drunk, by Jimmy Rogers (1924-1997).
Dying Crapshooter’s Blues, by Blind Willie McTell
Weak Brain, Narrow Mind, by Willie Dixon (1915-1992).
Hellhound On My Trail, by Robert Johnson (1937).
Got My Mojo Workin’ by Muddy Waters (live, 1963). This is my favorite version of this great song. The legendary Muddy Waters is introduced by his pianist Otis Spann and backed by Sonny Boy Williamson on harp, Willie Dixon on bass, Matt ‘Guitar’ Murphy on guitar and Bill Stepney on drums.
Ain’t It Sad, by Carolina Slim
