GUEST,gillymor Old Songs Newly Found (86* d) RE: Old Songs Remembered 29 Oct 25


I like my Blues with a big splash of Soul (and vice versa) and two of my favorite bluesmen, now departed, are James Milton Campbell (aka Little Milton) and Riley B. "BB" King. That's What Love Will Make You Do was a hit for Milton in 1965 and it kicks off with Milton playing a very cool guitar intro and more cool guitar all through it, along with his gritty vocal. Jerry Garcia recorded it on his Garcia LP but some of his live recordings of it with small combos are a better listen, IMO.That's What Love Will Make You Do

Milton had another hit with We're Gonna Make It in 1971, it's covered here by the great BB King along with the magnificent Irma Thomas (of Time is on My Side fame, a hit for the Rolling Stones in 1964). We're Gonna Make It

Finally, Beth Hart just killed the Etta James classic I'd Rather Go Blind at the 2012 Kennedy Center Honors in the company of the late guitar genius Jeff Beck.I'd Rather Go Blind
