That was Los Fabulocos featuring Kid Ramos, kicking off things with My Brother's Keeper. It's from their brand new album, DOS, as in Uno DOS trays. It's their second. And I have to admit that this track is not really typical. The rest of the album is what I would probably call Tex-Mex. It's really good, but not really blues. Something that is blues, though. This is Little Milton. (upbeat music) Here it goes, come talk. That I'm sure you to hear a lot of things that wouldn't make you cry, my dear. Now, ain't you glad? Ha! Oh, ain't you glad? That walls don't talk. I tell you they never talk. (upbeat music) If doors could tell. (upbeat music) We've turned the knob. (upbeat music) When he's away, away on his job. (upbeat music) I know you want to be glad that doors don't talk. (upbeat music) They never talk. (upbeat music) Oh, if cars could say who's been inside. (upbeat music) And who's been taken been taken by a rock that ain't too glad. (upbeat music) I know you want to be glad that cars don't talk. (upbeat music) Oh, no, they don't talk. (upbeat music) Come on now. (upbeat music) Yeah. (upbeat music) Prove it. (upbeat music) (upbeat music) Here's a point in life. (upbeat music) Ha! Oh! (upbeat music) (upbeat music) That's all right. (upbeat music) Please! If shoes could tell. (upbeat music) Where they've been. (upbeat music) When you're clean. (upbeat music) That you're there to be a friend. (upbeat music) That you've had. (upbeat music) I know you want to be glad that you don't talk. (upbeat music) Oh, they never talk. (upbeat music) In a world of trouble we'd be. (upbeat music) A thing never told on me. (upbeat music) My love life would be true. (upbeat music) I'm guilty. (upbeat music) How about you? (upbeat music) A thing never talked that way. (upbeat music) It's all time when they might say. (upbeat music) It's way too fast. (upbeat music) Everybody wanna be glad. (upbeat music) And the things don't talk. (upbeat music) I tell you they don't talk. (upbeat music) Cause I'm so glad. (upbeat music) The things don't talk. (upbeat music) Cause I'm so glad. (upbeat music) The things don't talk. (upbeat music) Cause you're thinking.

Well from 69 to 29 now. [Music] We're gonna steal my baby and make it up to you. We're gonna steal my baby and make it up to you. And so many women think that we'll make it up to you. [Music] I'll think out that you'll know where to go. [Music] I'll think out that you'll know where to go. [Music] Keep Lord just like King, in my bone of bone. [Music] I'm going baby, won't be back, you'll fall. If I wait any money, won't be back at home. [Music] And so think out that you'll win me. Got a heart like that, let's go. [Music] And so think out that you'll win me. Got a heart like that, let's go back. [Music] But if those are no need wrong, break up every one of my bones. [Music] [Music] My mother left me before I was a man. [Music] My mother left me before I was a man. [Music] And she left me on the wire, just living from him to him. [Music] Then when you're motherly here, you have more friends at home. [Music] When you're motherly here, you have more friends at home. [Music] No one to pity you, when you have your damn phone. [Music] Oh, stop being rainy where you need me. [Music] Oh, stop being rainy where you need me. [Music] It may be my trouble, I don't know what it can be. [Music] They take on my mother, they made her end up too. [Music] They take on my mother, they made her end up too. [Music] Every since the day I've been wondering what they'll be my do. [Music] [Music] I ain't going while you know most. [Music] Oh, I ain't going while you know most. [Music] Have all of my friends telling me, please leave for my don't. [Music] But the man have been good to me since he takes on her way. [Music] But the man have been good to me since he takes on her way. [Music] He called me to live from day to day. [Music] That was Park Plug Smith with mother lost boy, recorded in New York in January 1933. And although it sounds like a car part, he apparently took his name from a race horse, believe it or not. And before that, Six cylinder Smith with Pennsylvania Woman Blues. And no information exists about Six cylinder Smith, just the two tracks he recorded in Grafton, Wisconsin in December 1929. And it's been suggested that it may be another name for blind Joe Tagus, but we don't really know, and we don't know who the harmonica player was either. Let's bring it back up to date now with the Latvian Blues Band. [Music] [Music] [Music] Your friends told me I'll invite you, No good intentions, and your mama told me do. But I did a big attention, out to the men cohorts, starting to sing. Honey you left the cat out in the rain, with the boy hit you baby. Where did I meet you baby? Let the boy hit you baby, that's it, we got the split. I gave you my heart, and you stuffed it for the. If you, but I met babe, I gave you good for the. You say you're from Venus, I think you're from hell. I never met a woman who could torment that well. Let the boy hit you baby. Where are the guys hit you baby? Let the boy hit you baby, that's it, we got the split. [Music] [Music] They will meet you as been just like a dream. You're a nightmare come through, complete with the screams. Back up your things and don't make no fuss. This house ain't big enough for the two of us. The boy hit you baby, now where the guy hit you baby? Let the boy hit you baby, that's it, we got the split. Where are the boys hit you baby? And the guy hit you baby, let the boy hit you baby, that's it, we got the split. [Music] Things don't matter, things don't work. Every day, a rolling guys. One thing for sure, I don't live twice. I feel lucky about me and cure. I got some treats, cheap coffee. While I need some treats, little treats coffee. Dreams might be rough, things might be wrong. I never get much in the way. Now you're too loud, but you love what you do. I better go now way down south. One thing for sure, real cheap coffee. That's what I need some treats. [Music] Some like it's hot, I know. Some take it cold, I don't mind, I know. As long as the price is right, I know. [Music] Yeah, I never get much in the way. [Music] We have a challenge for me. They will bring me to a place. They'll bring me out your friends. And I'm right back to sweat. And they're all the neighbors too. Or they'll catch your brew. I'll hold on, I'll hold on. I'll hold on, I'll hold on. I've got some treats coffee. [Music] I've got some real treats coffee. Yeah, I know I've got to go. [Music] A couple of European blue spans there. That was the "Mama Brothers" with cheap coffee. They're from Finland and this is from their 2005 album, "Creeping Dog". Their website doesn't seem to have been updated since 2008 and they haven't looked into their MySpace page since 2009. So I'm not sure if they're still active. And before that, the Latvian blues band would let the door hit you. It's from their 2009 album "Unreal" produced by Duke Robillard. Well, I'm staying in Europe, but this town, Britain. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Said you was hurting. You almost lost your mind. The man you loved. It helped you all the time. Things go wrong. Lord, I'm so wrong with you, it helped me too. [Music] You loved another woman, yes, but I love you. But you love him. I'm sticking to him like glue, things go wrong. Lord, I'm so wrong with you, it helped me too. [Music] Love him more. But you should love him less. Why, stick up your heart here. Yes, take his badge. Where the things go wrong. Lord, I'm so wrong with you, it helped me too. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] So goodbye baby, I'm gonna pay my case. Lord, I know I never, I never take this place. Great things go wrong. Lord, Lord, I'm so wrong with you, it helped me too. [Music] As you heard a live version there, recorded live in Leicester in December 1968. That was Savoy Brown with It Heard Me Too. The track was on the 1969 Holland Blue Matter, and it's credited to somebody called London, but was actually written by Tampa Red, who's coming up in a few minutes' time. But before that, this is Charlie Kyle. I'm worried now but I won't be worried alone. I'm worried now but I won't be worried alone. It takes a word and man to sing this word song. I'm going to leave, baby, 'till I'll be alone. I'm going to leave, baby, 'till I'll be alone. I'm going to leave, baby, 'till I'm gonna leave my happy home. I'm going to the river, then I know the ground. I'm going to the river, then I know the ground. It's the truth of a technique I jump over, pull the drum. I woke up this morning, the truth on my mind. I woke up this morning, the truth on my mind. I was going out hard in, I've come to nothing but cry. When you see me leaving, baby, don't you cry. When you see me leaving, baby, don't you cry. If you meet with me again, baby, it was sure to die. Lord, I'm going to leave, honey, I cannot see. I'm going to leave, honey, I cannot see. I can't be done, but it's treated this way. Lord, I went up on a mountain, he turned a little home. I fell in up on a mountain, he turned a little home. I thought the little monkey turned him up the deader home. Oh, Lord, he longed, oh, Lord, he longed. It hurts me so bad, far as to fun. But someday, baby, I ain't going to worry my life anymore. So many nights since you've been gone, I've been warm and grieving my life alone. But someday, baby, I ain't going to worry my life anymore. So many days since she went away, I had to worry both night and day. But someday, baby, I ain't going to worry my life anymore. Now, boy, I ain't going to worry my life anymore. You owe my mind every place I go, how much I love you, nobody knows. But someday, baby, I ain't going to worry my life anymore. So that's my story, this is all I got to say to you. Goodbye, baby, and I don't care what you do. But someday, baby, I ain't going to worry my life anymore. Wonderful. Big Macio Meriwether with Worried Life Blues, recorded in Chicago in June 1941, with Tamper Red on guitar, been recorded by loads and loads of people, but I don't think many of them come even close to that version. And before that, Charlie Kyle, with Kyle's Worried Blues, recorded in Memphis in September 1928. Well, I suppose it's time for some Freddy now, but just before we get Freddy, let's have somebody doing some Freddy. Anybody knows Freddy King? I love Freddy King, this song is called "Warm On Across The River." [Music] Cross the river, a good old woman crying, said all the cars, the foolish man in line, she gave him everything to try to keep him satisfied, but the man showed so many lives, there's another man over there, that woman across the river, yeah, that sweet old woman across the river. And she was mine, worked out around, and he had you in the hood, so man, keep on running, from a new and far, I said how are I going to be so privileged, I guess I'll never know, but the man who is willing now, he's a-lucky, so-and-so, that woman across the river, yeah, that sweet old woman across the river, yeah, she was mine. [Music] [Music] I'll never just be on the day, about a week ago, this is I don't want to talk to you, I don't love you anymore, that woman across the river, yeah, that sweet old woman across the river, she was mine. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] She was mine, yeah, thank you, have you ever loved a woman, so much you're trembling pain, yes, have you ever loved a woman, so much you're trembling pain, yes, all the time you know, she was a never-man named, you just loved that woman, so much is a shame and a sin, yes, you just loved that woman, so much is a shame and a sin, yes, you know, yes, you know, she belonged to your very best friend, [Music] [Music] Yes, have you ever loved a woman, why did you know you can't leave alone, why did you know you can't leave alone, why did you know you can't leave alone, the great Freddy King of course, have you ever loved a woman, playing here from Blues Guitar Hero, which is a compilation of the early federal recordings that he's pulled out in 1993, and before that the snowy white blues project with "Woman Across the River" from the 2010 album "In Our Time Live" and it has so many people associated with Freddy since it was the title of his 1973 Harlem right, but you know, back in time again, I think.
