Just seen that the last of the great Mississippi Delta Bluesmen has passed away at the age of 96.

He was known for his fantastic memory & loved to tell stories about his life.

He famously said that he saw Robert Johnson drink the poisoned whisky that killed him - now THAT sends a shiver up my spine.

What a wonderful legacy he & his friends left us.
