TRES GRAND ARTISTE.

@dlyncherful Sometimes he leaves out a line that might have offended on a recording, such as in Rich Young Woman's Blues; "Red rooster says cock a doodle -do -do, Rich young woman says, Any dude cockle do" he sings "Any dude will do" and in Salty Dog Blues he sings "Two girls playing in the sand, " and leaves out the rest but some in the audience laugh because they have heard his live version before. Sometimes, like Robert Johnson, he lets the guitar imitate words that would have been there.

There may not be many record stores left but there's a lot more John Hurt out there and that can only be good.

You've heard about people who you never hear anything bad about? That's Miss. John Hurt. Everything I've ever heard about him is that he was a sweet, gentle soul and his music reflects that. Wonderful man!

He seemed like such a gentle soul. Miss him and I didn't even know him.
