Whitefang Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Nope. And you don't even have to be black to PLAY the blues. And that guitarist is ELVIN BISHOP, a decade before he fooled around and fell in love. Whitefang 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitefang Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Here's a lady we overlooked. And sadly, when the history of the blues is discussed, she gets overlooked too. And there's no intelligent sounding excuse for it. With a familiar tune! Whitefang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showed us how he played slide with a knife With a knife, eh? Back in the "day" such a thing was called either "bottleneck" (due to blues guitar players using the necks broken off of wine bottles or longneck beer bottles) or "fretting". On Dylan's debut LP it's claimed he was "fretting" ( Robert Shelton's words) this song with his girlfriend's(Suzy Rotolo) lipstick holder, but that he's been known to "fret" using the back of a kitchen knife or other such objects.
