About a month ago, I had the opportunity to go downtown to Beale and soak up a little more blues. I was actually taking my new boss out to see the 'sights' and give him a feel for Memphis. So of course I took him to Beale Street.
When we got in BB's, they introduced Blind Mississippi (Morris) Cummings! Definitely a treat. That evening, he was just playing by himself with one guitarist. They didn't need no more! He laid down a bunch of great tunes and really lit the place up.
After the show, I bought a CD of his and it rocks every bit as good as his live show does. Great fun!
If you have a chance to see him play, make sure you do!
