Guess that s why they call it the Blues !

This is the Elton John song that sets the old Mince pies streaming for old dorsetb - no idea why???
Whenever I hear itI am in a van to JFK airport listening to a driver sing along to it and tell us about his stay in London !
I have always ‘ enjoyed ‘ the Blues !
The photo onthe left is the great Son House ( hear his Death letter blues - powerful stuff) , SkipJames I’ m so glad )
and .........my favourite of all time (yes)Mississippi John Hurt( if you don’t listen to anyone else find his story and songs ? ). I’ve included s photo of Willie Dixon he wrote lots of songs you have heard( Cream ,,LED Zep )but never realised were written by him !
