I was born and raised in the Delta. We had our own Juke Joint on Fish Lake Farms called "The Cobra's Den." Delta City was the closest 4 miles, Anguilla 8, Rolling Fork 14. Going North Hollandale was 12 miles and Greenville 38. I remember the Blue Front well in Rolling Fork it would be jumping every Friday and Saturday night! Love this video, the Blues and the Great Memories!!

Drinking with my friend Jack, straight.... and absolutely hypnotised! I have got to go over to the states and drive around this part of that counrty

It's cool u got the blue front in there. My mom grew up in that town (bentonia) and as a kid I remember going to visit my grand mother and hearing music spill out of there. I gotta go back for a visit

[Mojostation]

Great! But without Alabama?

[Diatton]

R. L. Burnside is another Mississippi Boogie man like the great John Lee Hooker!

[ccaammiiittoo1]

@Diatton Agreed.

[Krmaca]

ihaaaa

[Guitarist80]

You are so right about that.

[jenkins80]

So glad you were able to make this trip. Wish more people were like you and realized how great of a state Mississippi is. So much history and so many great people hail from my home state. Really am proud of being a Mississippian and can't nobody take it away from me.

RL is Hill Country -- not delta

[Chrysistome]

Yes he is Shanna... a very different & distinct sound from the delta blues... He played the juk's in his area & the delta on occasion... We all miss him... God Bless & take care

Me and the Beau miss him greatly. We heard someone covering a Junior Kimbrough tune the other night on the radio, and we were pining away. The guy had Burnside's stomp, Kimbrough's tune and a little bit of a Buddy Guy hiccup to his voice.

Thanks for the video

[jefevadc]

That's music from the heart & soul right there, from a bad, bad man. Rest in peace Mr. Burnside. Thanks.
