Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe McCoy — Where's My Good Man At?

[bluesman769]

THE BEATIFULL!!!

[whd2002]

Introspective, but lack authority. You're singing pretty, but not really connected to the inside. The lyrics can translate to your voice, if you think about them and don't just sing them. Forget the vibrato, and carry the words to the end.

Lots of possibilities. You just have to find yourself.

[LittleBrotherBlues]

Amen, play exactly like you're doing. This is not American Idol, it's real music and real people. And there is no audience there, this is more like documentation of music not the Ed Sullivan show. I'm just pleasantly surprised how many of the best songs you know and how enjoyable this is. You are helping others greatly with your music and natural gift. You must have an amazing musical ear... Keep up the great work Christine. And do it precisely the way you feel!

[MrBlindBart]

Hey Christine, great rendition of this tune. They get constant rotation over here. Working on the Pile Driver Blues my fav by KJM but tough with one guitar :)

You have great taste.

Bart.

[SOTPM]

a beautiful song

[degen83]

Wow, you are so good at this. Are you on Itunes or something? You're covers are awesome :)

[AviatorAndyK]

marry me!!!

[tahooey]

brought a tear to my eye

[anthonypepitoneVideo]

Great job singing and playing on all these old blues tunes!!

[JonathanDaddy]

Nicely done. As someone who picked up this music -- and I keep trying to -- in the 1970s, it is really gratifying to see young folks keep this great music going. Great picking

[zorbazig]

If the Virgin Mary could have played the guitar, I would have imagined her like ya ! One day you'll reach the stars, baby ! This is just PERFECTION ! And you're so cute...

[chadkops]

Great playing, great singing.

Keep it up !

[G03Helix]

great playing and singing on all,would you consider when the levee breaks?

[cwhanna]

Don't smile for no one girl, unless the music tells you too. Your playing and singing is just devestatingly soulful. do it your way...

[CryingKnife]

OMG! dear jesus with pony tails!!!

SO good!

[coachdoc49]

Great tune and execution. A little less known than your others which is great, makes it easy to listen to without preconceptions.

[M15A2]

Don't listen to the self-appointed critics telling you what to do.

Keep on just being you.

I'd love to see you on stage. Someone call Austin City Limits.

[M15A2]

I've been listening to your songs - just great!!

Don't listen to those self-appointed critics telling you what to do.

Keep on keepin' on.

I'd love to see you on stage.

[bakedsushi]

NNNice Job....whew that made me sweat...your fingers are rollers

[karohell]

I like .............Great job!

sweet guitar.

[rstretch100]

Wow great job! I wonder how a young person like yourself would have picked up the interest and the ability to learn this style.

[rsnoodred]

Love this, ive spend all day listeing to your tunes while doing house work

great

absolutely great.

get a gig in scotland so i can see this live

[thorivaldic]

Got the blues nailed, just need soul. Much love!!!...

")

[Doctg100]

Fine guitar player! Great singing!

[MegaBroadband1]

i think you did really well

i ove memphis minnie ive glot a few cd s

you played and sang great

[zuckertube]

You don't have to smile. I am curious what your feeling when you play though

[zeppelinhendrixrules]

damn woman, you look suicidal. smile when you sing the blues...

[IplayBanjoNow]

Is that what you do when you play the blues? You're not the first to ask for a smile, but this is the first time I'm gonna ask why someone expects someone to smile when they play a sad song. So, why?

[rbseaver]

My eyes are usually closed when I sing blues, and I'm too busy hearing the words and music to smile. In fact, the only time I smile when i sing the guitar is when I'm performing for my little toddler.

For what it's worth, I don't see "suicidal". I see a talented musician who "gets" the blues.

[sinferno5]

soooooooooooooo beautifulllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!i cant get enough! do you have a c.d.!?

thank you for sharing all of your music,beauty and

time.truly unforgettable.johnny

[lobizoon1]

Don't bother about this ignorant, young and beautiful girl. His name shows he doesn't have a mere idea about what the blues is: "zeppelinhendrixrules", hahahah, my god. And he comes to tell you how to sing the blues?, while you are doing this beautiful version by true blues singers, as Minnie and McCoy ?

Keep it up, girl!

[3006khz]

@zeppelinhendrixrules

REALLY???

[ianwalkerdownland]

@zeppelinhendrixrules .Shes OK by me. Keep on doing what your doing.

[GibbyGoba]

Not heard a tune i didn't love yet' soothes the soul.

[BuddyBolden]

Another great one. The guitar part is excellent, as always, but your vocal really stands out here. You sing this with a nuanced mix of wistfulness and resignation that I don't really hear in the original, though it suits the lyrics perfectly and enhances the song immensely. A very impressive interpretation!

[bushwacker2008]

love this one as well as all the others.

good to see young people playing this great music.

[hambonecharliejohnso]

Your playing sounds stiff and restricted-because you anchor your pinky-you sound prissy like a folk singer-not bluesy,loosen up and free your pinky.

[lyndvs]

Good point, you have a keen sense of observation.

Regards, lyndvs

[monkeywrench890]

@hambonecharliejohns

Actually all the great blues artists anchored at least the pinky if not two fingers to the guitar body to give a "solid" sound skip james john hurt bukka white r johnson leadbelly rev davis fred mcdowell to name a few. Its classically trained musicians that spread this bullshit lie about 2 things 1 you shouldn't use your thumb to form a bass note and 2 your comment. Iplaybanjo your covers are awesome well done. :-)

[muirhouseterrace]

Open D?

[kickingmule]

Another old good song by Memphis Minnie !

Thanks for your version !

5 stars is all I have and you get them!

Urban

[kc7wwy]

SMILE !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Shoobleeopbopdoowop]

That was simply a Great rendition of Memphis Minnie's style! I'm really impressed!! It's great to see and hear a young person like yourself who has such a great feel for this genre' of music. BTW, I play blues guitar, so I know how tough it was to master the stuff you're doing! Here's a little tip I got from John Hurt himself back in 1969.Try doing his "Casey Jones" with three fingers in open G tuning. I think you'll really like what you hear. Your music is great! Please keep 'em coming!

[muirhouseterrace]

Ditto

[BanjoMan550]

You're addictive.

[henningvontreskow]

Beautiful. Minnie would be proud and so should you! You are great on your own. Comes from the heart.

[noidea63]

Beautiful! Thank you!

[Bluzer86]

very nice

[TennesseeShine]

Love the soft plaintive voice and deft finger-work!

[LizzyDouglas]

Minnie will never die, keep her lamp trimmed and burning ! Thank U !!

[simplementgenial]

Great , I love Minnie , I love your feeling and your style so simple and easy.

Cordially TP

[Skyman46]

Very impressive, thank you for posting :))

[meusikman21]

I'm in love!!

[daddystovepipe]

It's great to see and hear a young person like you to play this kind of music; this one particularly suits you well, bravo!

[EatAPeach1965]

Very,very nice....

[RoneyBalogna]

Bravo !

Encore !

[MaceGill]

Man, another great tune!

[rbseaver]

You never fail to impress me. The finger picking on this is slick, and your voice is just perfect and beautiful. A five star rating is a no-brainer here.

[barnyard633]
