"Goodbye, Jimmy Reed" is the consensus most fun song on Bob Dylan's 2020 Rough & Rowdy Ways, in that it rocks & rolls the most. Live: He plays it (nearly or?) every show this tour, lately as the next-to-last song, #16 or #17. In 1958 wife and husband Mary Lee Reed and Jimmy wrote, and Jimmy recorded for Vee-Jay Records, "Down In Virginia," blues tha

When I saw Joan last year she sang covers by Muddy Waters, Hip Shake by Slim Harpo (which I first learned existed from EOMS), four Dylan covers, and her own stuff. I really wanted to hear Right Hand Man, her song she's described as her attempt at a raucous rocker, raunchy in a Stones style but from a female POV

QuoteJadedFaded November 18: John Fogerty I had never seen Fogerty until August of this year. He's still got a strong voice, has an engaging stage presence, puts on a remarkably energetic show for someone his age, and plays a setlist loaded with the CCR songs we want to hear (the ownership of which he got back only this year). I was very impressed and happy with the concert.
