All Better

Thanks to everyone who wished me a quick recovery and sent more top ten blues lists. I’m still working on my lists but they should be done pretty soon and looking spiffy. Keep sending readers lists! I haven’t started to sort through them closely, but there’s been a great deal of diversity in the lists which makes me happy.

Emery Glen was an Atlanta blues musician who recorded four sides for Columbia in 1927. Though he was born and played in Atlanta his style isn’t at all like other Georgia blues players – he reminds me a lot of Memphis or Texas style guitar players – very melodic and simple. His voice is the big star – a great big booming voice that resonants in your head long after the song is over.
