Mama Loves A Hard Boiled Man

2

Today’s track is one of those haunting blues tracks that you have to hear to believe it, but it is still shocking and awful. It’s also very beautiful, Trixe Smith a very talented but minor blues singer, sings this song “You’ve Got To Beat Me To Keep Me” in such a sullen voice, one that barley reaches over a whisper at times. It’s one of the most awful and sad things I’ve ever heard. Sometimes I shy away from these types of tracks so it doesn’t seem like promoting marginal forms of blues music, but this track I think has enough weight to justify it’s existence as a great blues song.
