Your bluesman selection hit pretty much every touchstone there too, fuzz! Though I'll confess I couldn't place every one of 'em...
Little Walter Horton, Chester Burnett(The Wolf!), McKinley Morganfield (Muddy)....then I missed the next coupla guys with Willie Dixon in that lower right corner...
The lower ones had to be of Charlie Patton and Robert Johnson for starters....maybe Charlie Christian's in there too?
Wait, you didn't have J B Hutto in that first group did you?

Dug the pic of Luther.....makes me pine for seeing my blues guy Chris Beard...he was suppose to play down in Indpls tonight but for some reason cancelled out for a gig in Florida. He's got a guitar of Allison's that he plays...guess the pair were very close. Don't know if I ever sent you his "Tribute To Luther Allison" off his last live disc Doc.....fuck damn -- I shoulda gone at least down and caught some blues at the saloon tonight! Just gettin' too damn poor anymore to even do that....but then ain't that when you SHOULD be listening to the blues???

It really sucks when you're like me, so carefully nurturing a know-it-all image here....riiiiight!
Phfffft!
Nah it actually went 'Phfffft!' a long time ago...
But I definitely DID see the Wolf and I did see Willie Dixon(ALONG with J B Hutto) on the SAME afternoon long ago at the University of Illinois....
....good recovery...

Had to laugh out loud at the WC Fields pic Doc!
That one of mine posted before it....recollect the ol' Gigglesnort Hotel at all??
BTW, I love the way the ELP/Liberace pics went together....it's like Keith's looking over and going, "muthafucker, I thought I had the badass outfit goin' on!"
