1957

Bringing you a Triple Dose of Baby Please Don't Go today.

I loved stumbling across these recordings!

The first one highlights Jo Ann Henderson’s ability to convey emotional depth with both restraint and power—giving the listener a new way to experience a classic that has been interpreted in so many different ways.

The other one, by Tampa Kid, adds a whole new energy, with a unique take.

1936

And, of course, we can't forget the original version by Joe Williams' Washboard Blues Singers—written by Big Joe Williams, the man who started it all.

1935

In case you want even more, click here for a Double Dose of the track with Rose Mitchell (1953) and Big Joe Williams' (1947) takes.

At the Moulin Rouge

Artist: Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, 1864-1901)

Date: 1892-1895

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America

Description

Even in its crowded intimacy, At the Moulin Rouge retains an element of the theatrical: its cast of vibrant characters, lit by unseen lights, are reflected in blurry mirrors.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec has been associated with the Moulin Rouge since its opening in 1889: the owner of the legendary nightclub bought the artist’s Equestrienne as a decoration for the foyer. Toulouse-Lautrec populated At the Moulin Rouge with portraits of the legendary nightclub’s regulars, including himself—the diminutive figure in the center background—accompanied by his cousin, physician Gabriel Tapié de Céleyran. Dancer La Goulue arranges her hair behind the table where Jane Avril, another famous performer, socializes. Singer May Milton peers out from the right edge of the painting, her face harshly lit and acid green. At some point, the artist or his dealer cut down the canvas to remove Milton, perhaps because her strange appearance made the work hard to sell. Whatever the reason, by 1914 the cut section had been reattached to the painting.

Bill Murray: A tuxedoed, leathery lounge singer, crooned "Star Wars" before you knew the words. Half-grin, off-key, he sways, winks, and owns the room—gloriously bad, yet golden.
