R.L. Burnside dead at 78

I don't listen to much blues, but R.L. was one of my favourite.

R.I.P.

ah shit.

that sucks.

there's a great piece on the Okie Noodling DVD which is hidden unless you scroll down aimlessly on the title screen...with RL.

there's a couple scenes actually. one RL says: When there's trouble, they say call 911...i call 357.

and it's got a little about the LP with Jon Spencer: RL says: we recorded the whole album in four hours....holding up four fingers. and Spencer is like we showed up and RL said: "are you ready to party?".

god bless him.
