And it's a slightly different show this week. The 2009 Blues Music Awards were announced last week. So what I thought I'd do is dedicate the show to some of the winners. I couldn't actually fit them all in in an hour's show. I'd probably need two hours or maybe even three. And starting as after I was Marsha Ball, who won the Pine Tops Perkins Piano Player Award, which they named after Pine Tops so that he wouldn't win it every year, I think. That was from her 2001 album, "Presumed Innocence", the Bodeau Louisiana, "Great Start". Well, the person who won the acoustic album and the acoustic artist of the year was not Rory Block, although she was nominated in both categories, but was actually Eden Brent. This is the title track from her latest album, "Mrs. Sippy, number one".

He won instrumentalist guitar and thought that award might have gone to Derek Trucks, but he wasn't even nominated. I'm not sure how people get nominated, but Derek didn't make it this year. Right. The BB King Entertainer of the Year was an award they named after BB so that he didn't win his every year. A bit like the Pine Top Perkins won, but he still won a couple of categories. But this year's BB King Entertainer of the Year was Geneva Magnus. And this is a track from a 2004 album "Perry in at the Crossroads". This wasn't that enough. You took a piece of my heart one night. I saw how easy I could fall. I chased you down and I gave you the rest because I wanted you to have it all. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. Well I gave you everything I had. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. For you to give me just a little bit back. Every little thing that you asked me, you know I do it just for you. You didn't like my loving ways. Darling, I would change that too. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. When I gave you everything I had. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. For you to give me just a little bit back. Well I pledged myself to you long. I didn't want nobody else. You were never gonna love no one as much as you loved yourself. Well I'm down on my knees at your table baby. I'm waiting on one little crumb. I got to find my sugar somewhere else because all of my anger that done wasn't that enough? Love baby. When I gave you everything I had. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. For you to give me just a little bit back. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. When I gave my heart and soul you. Wasn't that enough? Love baby. For you to give me just a little love too. Give me just a little love too. Give me just a little love too. A little love too. Gianna Vermagnes wasn't that enough from her 2004 album Berry Him at the Crossroads and she is this year's BB King Entertainer of the Year, a terrific singer. Well somebody who came back last year after quite some serious illness is a guy called Kenny Neal and his song Let Life Flow won Song of the Year so here's Kenny Neal. ♪ And just when you're playing you got it all figured out. Here comes something you never dreamed about. Life is so unpredictable. That's the way it is. ♪ Give a little heart to bear sometime. Things out of nowhere to blow your mind.

Keep your feet on the ground. Life is so unpredictable. That's the way it is. Give a little heart to bear sometime. Things out of nowhere to blow your mind. The one thing I know for sure. You got the little life flow. You got the little life flow. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ When you hear the real heart and you feel the pain. You gotta reach inside. Find such high in the rain. Life is so unpredictable.

Well, I'm not sure what I'd have nominated for my album of the year last year. All sorts of things bring to mind. So I'm quite happy that this one got it. Buddy Guy in Skin Deep.

I said out there in this big wide world you're gonna meet all kind of folks. I said son, I'll come down to just one separate room. Let you treat everybody just the way you want them to treat you. Skin deep, skin deep, I'm the lead. We are all the same. Skin deep, skin deep, I'm the lead. We are all the same. We are all the same. Skin deep, I'm the lead. We are all the same. Skin deep, skin deep, I'm the lead. We are all the same. We are all the same. But he got in Skin deep, a title track of the album of the year. Bonnie Bramlett and her daughter, Becca Bramlett, doing back and vocal to her. And even if he wasn't nominated for a guitar of the year, Derek Trucks at least got to play on one of the awarded albums he was featured on that track. So, buddy guy, Skin deep. Well, he created a new category this year, Rock Blues Album of the Year, and it went to Jeff Healy for Mess of Blues. This is from that. I'm going to tell you about my baby, I speak of her with pride. She does everything. She keeps me satisfied, no, she ain't nothing. She ain't nothing but a tree. But I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. Well, I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. Well, I came from the sugar, sugar never was so sweet. Great stuff. Jeff Healy with Sugar Sweet from the album Mess of Blues, which won Rock Blues Album of the Year. Well, this has been Nothing But the Blues with me, Cliff, and the website is www.nothingputtheblues.co.uk. And there you'll find the playlist, links to artists and links to previous shows. You can email me, Cliff@nothingputtheblues.co.uk. And if you're a fan of the older blues, don't worry, we'll get back to that next week. I just wanted to look at the Blues Award winners. And BB won at least one other. I can't remember. Now, he won at least two. He won the one for the album earlier. And he also won Traditional Blues Male Artist of the Year. The Lady who won Traditional Blues Female Artist of the Year was Coco Taylor. And I thought we might as well go out with both of them together. This is from Coco's 2000 album, Royal Blue. The track is Blues Hotel. Thanks for listening. I'll catch you next week. ♪♪♪ ♪ Oh, you know this time we don't burn ♪♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪♪ ♪ Little sign, a sign ♪♪♪ ♪ You know it's starting to smoke ♪♪♪ ♪ Oh, you know it's starting to smoke ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♠♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Oh, the hell we're waiting for ♪♪ ♪ Blue Hotel ♪
