RIP RL Burnside

A great bluesman has passed at the age of 78.

I'll be listening to "Burnside on Burnside" later.
 
I'm saddened to hear this, RL Burnside was one of my favourites.

I loved his material with Jon Spencer, and he was a breath of fresh air in my collection.

I'm sure he will be sadly missed.

I guess he got his wish...

...I Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down

Think I'll go and play it now. :(
 
"I got an ass pocket of whiskey
And a front pocket of gin
You don't open that door quick
I'm gon' kick the motherfucker in"

Farewell. The version of 'Rolling and Tumbling' from Mr Wized is a blinding bit of slashing, mechanised groove with wonderfully unintelligible vox. His slide guitaist, Kenny Brown (?), made some particulalty fine contributions.
