Nothin' we can do but to "pitch a wang dang doodle all night long"!
I've proven who I am so many times, the magnetic strips worn thin.

And if she didn't cut Howlin' Wolf on that one, she equalled him. What presence. What a grand belter. Give that gal another fifth and let her sort you out—if you dare.Feadoggie wrote:

Re: Koko Taylor is dead.
I agree that she was great. The thing that first attracted me to her, oddly enough, was her looks--she was rather ugly, and her big ole buck teeth made me like her (I'm weird like that). But once you were interested in her, her talent way outshone her ugly appearance.
