The Gentleman in the photo below was in a shop on Beale Street in Memphis this past week. He was selling his cd, he was quite the charmer, and guess who bought one. He is ninety-two years old still playing in the venues in town and calls himself "The Godfather of the Blues". It's a great album. Here he is Mr. Clyde Hopkins and me.
We could not get on a flight to Cancun last Tuesday so we came home for about an hour, regrouped and went to Memphis. I had never been there before I was so excited. Graceland here we come. What a wonderful, wonderful trip. So much music history, civil rights history and even the lower Mississippi. Memphis has done a great job of creating, building, and maintaining it's museums. What great attention to detail and information. So here is our trip. This photo is a little out of focus, it was originally taken at the place, we then purchased it at the end of the tour and have now scanned it to use here.
