Lightnin' Wells - blues and old-time music

"




blues
aptly suggested
aptly applied
the bluesman
tells the stories
of strife
of disparity
of abandonment
the lost days 
of love unreturned
unrelentingly denied
those memory days
etched
in experience noted
gives way 
nourishing
the needs
of one's soul
so say the bluesman

so say ...



mike 'lightinin'' wells and i have been friends
for more than 45 years, easily within reach five decades
shared moments of friendship/
mike is an exceptional musican, a keeper, a guardian,
a protector and historian of southern blues and old time songs.
how fortunate am i.
