1. Catherine, thanks for acknowledging the passing of a National Treasure.

   I’m grateful to have been weened on the blues and saw The “Beale Street Blues Boy” many times going back to the Fillmore East.

   James Cotton and Buddy Guy, the last of the great Chicago bluesmen are still out there playing. See ’em while you can. You will never regret it.

   1. Could not agree more. I remember going road tripping in college so my roommate and I could see Buddy Guy perform and meet him.

      If you have not checked out the Peter Guralnick interview, you might enjoy it.
