Back from my rest

Hello everybody. My name is Lemon. Most of you might know me as Blind Lemon Jefferson.

Uh...here...click ya little mousey on this: -play me-
It's a song of mine, which I sure do appreciate now that I'm back...
go ahead...I'll wait til you get back...

Alrighty...go ahead and turn it up, too. Not too loud, though...I can HEAR just fine...

I haven't heard my music in awhile...
(Sigh)

Did I out live them last set o' strings I was playin? I think so. And where's my money? I know Mayo Williams didn't end up with all my money, now did he? I made a lot of money in my time. Especially for back in THEM days. Didn't have to spend too much time writin' songs, either.
Ooh wee...ya see, we LIVED those songs back in THEM days, boy. Songs would just jump on your back and ride down the street with ya. Have to stop on the corner and getcha rest. Let a few tunes go to lighten the load, and maybe take in a little coin here and there. That is until Mayo got me hitched up with Paramount. Then I was turnin' the green backs OVER, baby!

Well, anyhow, I heard from a little bird that some old timers decided to come back for some serious gossipin' round here...somethin' I might just have to see for myself, so to speak. I had a little list that was given to me...
ok...let's see...
Well I hope this is it. Of course I can' t see it cuz I'm blind, but I did think ahead and memorize it...
Oh yeah...
I heard it was Robert Johnson, Ma Rainey, Joe And Minnie, and that composer Duke Ellington, the king of swing. Yeah he aint bad for one of those city boys. I heard he is particularly set in his ways, if you know what I mean. ALWAYS workin' on compositions that Duke. Anyway...I ought to get up and clean off my git fiddle...haven't touched old wood in some time. Maybe I should cut another record. Gotta figure out who's runnin' the record biz now a days.
See ya round here soon...
