The title track from the 2004 album, which is a tribute to John Lee Hooker. Great stuff, really like that. Well, even though I'm going through the alphabet, I'm still trying to keep the same format of the show with some modern, some old, some in-between. And I'm gonna go back in time now. So P is for Charlie Patton. Fabulous Charlie Patton. The first song I ever recorded in Richmond and Diana in June 1929, that was Mississippi Weevil Blues. Well, I was going through the alphabet and doing quite nicely, I thought, and then I got to cue the "oh dear, where do we go here?" And then I remembered I do have one track on one compilation album by a guy whose name begins with "Q". This is Doug Quattelbaum. ♪ Yes, when you were loving me, baby ♪ ♪ Yeah, at the time, little girl, I didn't love you ♪ ♪ You used to make your own paycheck, baby ♪ ♪ You'd bring it all home to me ♪ ♪ I'd take it and go on the west side in your mind ♪ ♪ I make every woman took a scene more for a baby ♪ ♪ Treat me the way you want to do ♪ ♪ Yes, when you were loving me, baby ♪ ♪ Yeah, at the time, little girl, I didn't love you ♪ ♪ Yeah, at the time, little girl, I didn't love you ♪ ♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪ ♪ Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm ♪ ♪ Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm ♪ Derek Trucks Band with Days is Almost Gone, from his latest album, Already Free. It's a great album. Saw him live when he toured as one of their acceptance band a few years ago. Absolutely knock out. If you get a chance to see him rush to do so. I gather he's over here at the moment, over in Britain again, but I've missed him this time. So Derek Trucks Band. Okay, from T to U and I could only really think of one person with you. This is James Blood Olma. [Music] See, I was born to lose, and for me there ain't no escape from the blues. You know, I haven't seen a head for my woman. She's the last thing I got to be here. She said, "Son, if you ain't got no money, I ain't gonna hang around and be your maid." But I could see I was born to lose, but me there ain't no escape from the blues. [Music] I got to go to the welfare host. You know, I got to get myself a few stamps, so I can get myself a cup of coffee. Well, you know, I see I was born to lose, and for me there ain't no escape from the blues. [Music] You know, I have worn out my shoes, and now I'm wearing out my socks. I feel like I ain't got no rent to pay. I ain't got no job. Well, I could see I was born to lose, and for me there ain't no escape from the blues. [Music] [Music] James Blood Alma, and that was him doing the feedback, not me. No escape from the blues. The title track was 2003 album, and again, I'm not sure I've got anybody else beginning with you, so it was good job I had a couple of his albums. Well, from the rather raw sound of James to the silky smooth sound, this is Eddie Vincent with Juicehead Baby. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] I've got a juicehead baby. She's drunk all the time. [Music] I've got a juicehead baby. She's drunk all the time. [Music] When she can't get in the cup, she all knows who's am I. [Music] [Music] She makes me go to work good. [Music] [Music] She'd rather drink whiskey than eat of seven coals meal. [Music] She'd rather drink whiskey than eat of seven coals meal. [Music] When she's high, she's happy. [Music] Now you know just how I feel. [Music] I worry when she's loud and rowdy. [Music] I worry when she's quiet. [Music] It's getting darn expensive to keep up a whiskey diet. [Music] I took her to a doctor. [Music] And this is what you said. [Music] There ain't no pill who's gonna help her. She's just a natural whiskey. [Music] As I can be. [Music] Now my woman and her whiskey is going to be the death of me. [Music] Eddie Vincent and you said baby. Recorded in France in March 1969. And I got two reasons for playing this one. A, I really like Eddie Vincent and his name begins with V. But B, on guitar there was T-bone Walker. And I wanted to sneak some of that in. And people who know me can't believe that I'm not putting T-bone Walker in the W slot. But I wanted to leave that for this guy. This is muddy waters.
