steve rubio mentioned dale miller who made me think of
dave evans (and his
sad pig dance). thinking of dave reminded me of
woody mann, who nudged me directly into rememberances of jo ann kelly, because they all shared a label i worked for when their records came out.
and i realized that i haven't listened to one of the best blues voices ever for a for a very long time, so i found this
jo ann kelly tribute site a few days ago, and, really, just listen to this woman!
