YouTube - Sam Lightnin' Hopkins - Cotton.flv
This reminds me of my Grand father. His parents would send him on a train, at 8 years old, to go pick cotton 100 miles away from home for wks. at a time. Wish he was still here so I could ask him about that time in life.

Sam "Lightnin" Hopkins (1912-1982) remarkable guitarist with a soulful voice. He is my favorite Blues artist. He played in my home town Crockett Texas in the 1940's,which is 30 miles from Centerville where he was born. They have a life size statue of him (the first one honoring him) on S. Third Street, across from the Camp Street Cafe where he played. Wish I could have seen and got to meet him.

    One of his eras most recorded artists ( thankfully 😁) The reason for this was, he would sign a contract with one label, then go and record an album with another! He broke all the rules, didn't give a damn. True bluesman, nothin but the blues❤️

    Both these songs are similar to stuff I've got on different Lightnin LP's. But he was always coming up with new words, changing things around. Like so many older blues singers and songsters. RIP Lightnin and Bo,the two coolest cats ever lived. Yes I know I keep saying that.

    We drove up to Berkeley in 1965 to see Lightnin'. He played and sang mostly on guitar, sometimes piano. Around 12:30 a.m. the theater manager came on stage and tried to close the place down according to a Berkeley city statute, but Lightnin' would have none of it. He kept moving from the guitar to the piano while the manager tried to corral him and the audience whooped and hollered. What i remember is what's in this video, that he loved the music and was one with it, a deeply magnetic, genuinely soulful man.

      @AnandaGarden ~ starting about 1963 Lightnin' had a 30 minute TV show Monday through Friday afternoons on a Houston TV station. He would play guitar & tell stories. When my parents gave me a guitar I tried to learn some of what Lightnin' was doing. That was very difficult because he had crazy long fingers that allowed him to easily span several frets, which I couldn't do. My beloved parents & Lightnin' are buried in the same Houston cemetery. And I will be there too.
