Nice tune! Be glad to repost sort of y'alls stuff sometimes. Did you pick your name from the maybe after the Howlin' Wolf tune or after James Yancey Jones?

From #australia, Anni Piper is a great #singer and #guitarist, here playing one of my favorite #electric #blues #tunes "Untrue". She also lived in #cocoabeach #florida for some time. This is a #whimsical #song about a #marriage that never made it to starting.

I haven't checked out Jelly Roll in a while, on the list. Definitely love some Howlin' Wolf! And I'll check out the others!
Mary Lou Williams was a composer and mentor to many of the early jazz greats, shaping the direction of the genre. Why is she now so unknown? Find out. And find her. Hear her story! 👇 #WomenInHistory
Thanks for sharing! Certainly interested in knowing any favorite blues/jazz that was shared.

I need to grab more of her albums. Thanks!
Yeah, he pulled of some pretty cool unique sounds on his second album!
Yeah, both his albums are great although his second one is pretty different from his first one (definitely not in a bad way!)
A lot of great versions of Red House out there but this one is probably the best!
Buffalo Nichols of #milwaukee #wisconsin covers "You're Going to Need Someone on Your Bond" originally by Blind Willie Johnson in #neworleans #louisiana. Off his latest amazing album The Fatalist.

Hey Magenta! I cross-post music as part of my attempt at blues ambassadorship, happy to post something you've recorded sometime.
John Lee Hooker's Detroit recordings volume 1
#oldschoolcool. John Lee Hooker got a job at #ford in #detroit in the #1940s. His #blues #music career took off from there. And don't forget his #performance on the #street in the Blues Brothers #movie. Director's cut has the full #song.

Thanks! Added him.
In the short and medium term stirring the pot is exactly what I'm after too. If I keep this up and grow enough who knows how else I'll be able to help with that. I'll be around.
#chicago, #houston and #westcoast #blues and #r&b legend Big Mama Thornton belting out "Rock Me Baby."
She once played #theapollo in #harlem and not until 2024 was inducted in to the #rock and #roll #halloffame. She has been in the blues hall of fame since 1984.
