My friends mom used to listen to Sapphire and the Uppity Blues Women...they were pretty good (I was like 14...can't believe they are still around!). 'Eating Cold Pizza for Breakfast' was my favorite tune. R.I.P. Mrs. Karambay. |

Totally sweet. Train puts on an amazing show, which if you read my blog on myspace you know. Anyway, just a tangent, I transcribed some of the recorded interviews for the latest book on BB King. It was cool to listen to these old southern guys talk about performing with BB or knowing him, in the old days. |
