i love all kinds of music i play guitar and i play rock blues metal goth funk you name it i like it all, but i dont know what it is but for some reason i go nuts over old blues like that wow!!
Ah.. memories of Hugh Jarrett (Big Hugh Baby), WLAC Nashville, in the early 60s brought to you by Ernie's Record Mart and Randy's Record Store. Bought several of Jimmy Reed's 33s mail-order. Great stuff. Thanks for the upload.
Mama was around to help Jimmy out with lyrics he'd forget from time to time. She got a little loud in the Vee Jay studios this time, but she sounds like a backup singer.
@411Rocco I never noticed her or thought she was a backup singer. That is the cutest story! Her helping with the lyrics. My old man's friends called him the BOSS MAN! This tune was one of his favorites. I always thought it was (YOU JUST "TALL" not TALK! JIMMY talks kinda JAZZY, but TALL would be more appropriate I believe!
the Rolling Stones totally based their early sound on Jimmy Reed.but just didn't get that looseness....for me there's nothing as laid back as Jimmy Reeds blues...
nOW , THESE ARE THE BLUES!

@bluesoul1961 The only drummer that comes to mind right away is Meg White of the White Stripes. She plays it real simple too.
