This version of the great Otis Rush number is part of an abandoned blues documentary by Martin Scorsese.

happy fathers day

To four of the best dads I know...

My brothers, (l. to r.) Joe, Mike, Kell and Larry (not shown here) learned dadhood from our great father, who was the best of all!

Joe is a father to 9, Mike, 4, Kell, 3 and Larry 6; what a grand collection of fine nieces and nephews I have! Thanks boys. Lots of love to you on this special day.
