Bo Diddley I m A Man
via youtube.com
And he was a man! I had an up close encounter with Mr. Diddley many years ago when he played a sparsely-attended outdoor show in Sherman Park in Madison, Wisconsin.
The stage was ground level, and I was right up in the front row. Hell, it wasn't even a row, it was just a few of us standing up close listening. Anyway, a very cute girl, about 15, was standing right next to me. Bo was singing this song, no more than 10 feet away from us, and he was working his Bo Magic on this girl...and it was working. He was the man....I'm sure you're entertaining them wherever you are today, Bo.

"She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye" by Mickey Newbury
via youtube.com
Do you know Mickey Newbury? He's one of the greats....but many have not heard of him.
Kris Kristofferson
said of him: “God, I learned more about songwriting from Mickey
than I did any other single human being. To me he was a songbird.
He comes out with amazing words and music... I’m sure that
I never would have written Bobby McGee, Sunday Morning
Coming Down... if I had never known Mickey. He was my hero
and still is.”
