Thread Name: Delta Blues Gravesites
Subject: Delta Blues Gravesites
For those interested in Delta Blues (and if you aren't I pause here for a moment's silence in mourning for what you are missing), and with access to the New York Times, there is a long piece today on Skip Henderson's mission to locate and put gravestones over the early blues singers. He has set up about ten, ranging from Robert Johnson to Memphis Minnie. Good Work, nice piece. By the by, I have been looking for months for the Detroit Blues society, as I am told that they are refurbishing Son House's site. If anyone has a contact there, could they let me know? Yours, Peter
