So you can see why he called himself Black Ace. He called it in Dallas in February 1937, and it's another one from the four CD, Texas Blues Box set. And before that, George Tory with married woman blues, recorded in Birmingham, Alabama in April 1937. Two from 1937, very good. I'm gonna carry on now with a tamper red song, but not actually by tamper red. This is a guy I only discovered relatively recently. This is Michael Jerome Brown. Now I'm not much to look at. And I don't pretend to be. But believe me, Someday you're gonna see. You missed a good man. When you picked all over me. You missed a good man. When you picked all over me. I'm lovin' squatty. I'm built for speed. Got everything that a real good mama needs. You know you missed a good man. When you picked all over me. When you missed a good man. When you picked all over me. You missed a good man. When you picked all over me. I'm built like a tadpole. She'd just like a frog. When I start to love me, you will love me. You got done. You missed a good man. When you picked all over me. Michael Jerome Brown with you missed a good man. As I said, it's a tamper red song and it's taken from his 2001 album, Drive On. And it's the only one of his albums I've got. I really must investigate some others because I really like the album. And I've seen bits of other stuff of his on YouTube. I really must get some more stuff. Well, this has been Nothing But the Blues with Me, Cliff. And the website is www.nothingbuttheblues.co.uk. I know you'll find the playlist with links to artists and previous shows. And if you want to make a request like Bob did, email me, Cliff@nothingbuttheblues.co.uk. And I'm going to leave you today with a track by Sean Costello from his album We Can Get Together, which came out last year, sadly just before he died. The track is the same old game. Thanks for listening and I hope you'll join me again next week for another hour of Nothing But the Blues. ♪ I got a new way of thinking me and I'm a shadow of doubt ♪ ♪ I got a new way of loving and it's knocking at my mouth ♪ ♪ I got a new way of talking and I wouldn't tell you no lie ♪ ♪ If I got something to tell you, look you're dead now ♪ ♪ I got a brand new rider, ain't gonna call up my name ♪ ♪ Now when you see me coming, you know I'm coming all so ♪ ♪ But when I come into town, you know I can't stay low ♪ ♪ I got a brand new rider, ain't gonna call up my name ♪
