Hi, ando - I watched this last night and was pleased to see many of the same of the same interviewees as the Hammond doc (Shines, Honeyboy, Willie Mae, et al.) plus original Johnson recordings in the soundtrack. I love Johnny Shines - he has that same mature/dignified aura as Muddy Waters. Thanks!

This is blues, isn't it?
Not the greatest song I've ever heard, but something about it caught my attention:

Billie Holiday

Billie Holiday - "Strange Fruit" Live 1959

Billie Holiday was a badass. She was threatened by Harry Anslinger, the Head Of the FBI, to stop singing about lynching. She did it anyway and continued to do it no matter what the monster tried to do to ruin her life. Now, Holiday and “Strange Fruit” are still remembered. Anslinger is not. I pray one day to be as brave as Billie was.
