I know you've been

Hurt by someone else

I can tell by the way

You carry yourself

But if you let me

Here's what I'll do

I'll take care of you

I, I've loved and lost

The same as you

So you see I know

Just what you've been through

But if you'll let me

Here's what I'll do

I just got to take care of you

You won't ever have to worry

You won't ever have to cry

I'll be there beside you

To dry your weeping eyes

-I'll Take Care Of You B.B. King and Bobby Bland

Bobby 'Blue' Bland

Bobby was born in Barretville, Tennessee. He dropped out of school in third grade to work in the cotton fields. He acquired the name "Bland" from his stepfather, Leroy Bridgeforth, who was also called Leroy Bland. He was called Bobby 'Blue' because of his bluesy voice.

He moved to Memphis in 1947, where he started singing with local gospel groups. Eager to expand his interests, he began frequenting the city's famous Beale Street, where he became associated with a circle of aspiring musicians, including B.B. King, Rosco Gordon, Junior Parker and Johnny Ace, who collectively were known as the Beale Streeters. Bobby developed a sound that mixed gospel with the blues and R&B. He has been described as one of the great storytellers of blues and soul music.

Robert Calvin Brooks died on June 23, 20113 in Germantown, Tennessee at the age of 83.

PROSE – TUNAGE I’m cleaning up the clutter a result of a prolonged illness. Shit piles up quick. My wife used to put on the Blues on the cleaning days. I used to dread these days because I knew she was going to work me to death. Plus, its Saturday, so that means Blues Saturday Night. While, clearing up this mess I’ll listen to potential tracks to get me in the mood for this evening. As I get my…

“Soul My Way” (Smash 1967) o cuando Jerry Lee consiguió cristalizar un poderoso LP de rhythm and blues, a conservar junto a “Beat & Soul” de los Everly Brothers. Entre otras cosas, contiene buenas versiones de “Turn On Your Lovelight” de Bobby Bland, “Treat Her Right” de Roy Head y “Hey Baby!” de Bruce Channel. También es el disco de “Just Dropped In” (Mickey Newbury) y de buenos números como “It's A Hang Up Baby” y “He Took It Like A Man“. Cierran con brillantez, y abundantes metales, su LP más negro “I Betcha Gonna Like It” y “Shotgun Man”.
