Rory Block - Powder Rag.wmv

Written in 1908 by Charlies Johnson under the name of Raymond Birch, "Powder Rag" was a huge hit! Rory Block plays it on "The Early Tapes 1975/1976" which was released in 1989. Enjoy!

Rory Block has won five W.C. Handy Awards (now called Blues Music Awards). She has won Traditional Blues Female Artist two times, and three times for Acoustic Blues Album Of The Year.

You have to check out her site: www.roryblock.com. Photos by Sergio Kurhajec are on her site, her signed artwork is in a new area called The Store...and it's a joy to look at for Rory Block enthusiasts. She is even selling some of her stage clothes. Let me warn you she loves clothes...and boots! Have fun!!!
