[audio]Johnson Jones Blues - MF Foster
Johnson Jones was a 96 year old, blind, Black man-he would lean his head on his cane and tell me stories of 'the day' in the 1930's in Mississippi. Johnson was a friend of Robert Johnson and I promised to write him a song one day...I waited too long and one day he was gone.

[audio]Baby Please Don't Go - MF Foster/Big Joe Williams
I was watching a 1950's version of Tennessee William's 'Baby Doll' and there was an old blues singer on the front porch playing a harp, stompin' his foot and singing this Big Joe William's song from the 1930's. Guess there's been hundreds of versions but up till now, you haven't heard mine-Baby Please Don't Go-MF

[movies]Robert Johnson THREE Gravesites (Delta Blues Master) - Randy Meadows
My visit to all three of the graves/markers for Robert Johnson near Greenwood, Ms. On Friday, August 12th, 1938, Robert and David 'Honeyboy' Edwards were booked to play at a dance in Three Forks, near Greenwood, Mississippi. Robert was apparently showing too much interest in somebody's wife or girlfriend. The next night, the jealous husband had his friends give Robert some poisoned whiskey. Another eyewitness, Sonny Boy Williamson (Rice Miller), claims that Robert was openly displaying affection...

[audio]Bertha Lee w. Charley Patton-Mind Reader Blues - Bertha Lee w. Charley Patton
Recorded on January 31, 1934 in New York City. This tune, along with "Yellow Bee," was recorded at Patton's last recording session. He died two months later. Bertha Lee was Patton's common-law wife at the time. Lee appears to be lecturing Patton, who was an inveterate womanizer, with her sultry voice. In the fourth verse Lee sings: "I remember a day when I were livin' at Lula town, I remember a day when I were livin' at Lula town, my man did so many wrong things 'til I had to leave the town."

Recorded in June 1930 in Grafton, Wisconsin. These recording sessions included Charley Patton, Willie Brown and Louise Johnson who all drove up to Wisconsin together from Mississippi. This tune made a deep impression on a young Robert Johnson, who was reportedly mentored somewhat by House; Johnson later recorded this tune as "Walkin' Blues." John Lee Hooker likewise did his own version in 1949 called "Burnin' Hell," based on the lines from the third verse: "Yeah, ain't no heaven, ain't no burnin...

Recorded on January 31, 1934 in New York City. This tune was originally made popular by Memphis Minnie. The tune is clearly sexual in nature, and from Patton's asides during the tune, it appears that Patton is certainly enjoying Lee's come on. It is thought that Patton and Lee recorded several other tunes during this last recording session. See the notes to "Mind Reader Blues." However, if they did, they are lost and haven't been heard...by anyone still alive that is...

Im Going Where the Southern Cross the Dog. African American composer W. C. Handy wrote in his autobiography of the experience of sleeping on a train traveling through (or stopping at the station of) Tutwiler, Mississippi around 1903, and being awakened by: ... a lean, loose-jointed Negro [who] had commenced plucking a guitar beside me while I slept. His clothes were rags; his feet peeped out of his shoes...
