Mississippi John Hurt

I've written before about Mississippi John but feel the need tonight to remind ya'll of his wonderfulness. Amazing.

Just make him a pallet on your floor.

Coffee Blues, of course, is my favorite.
A spoonful of Maxwell House will do you as much good as two or three cups of that other coffee. Indeed.

John Hurt was from Avalon

I love him and find him an inspired musician who truly represents the wonderful diversity and magnificence of our country.
