Comment:

I know that whether some of these songs qualify as even being remotely blues is questionable, but I think most of them would qualify. When I had questions, I just tried to imagine them being sung by Robert Johnson. That's how I became convinced that Cherries belonged on here.

Sadly, the namesake of this mix didn't really fit on here.

There are the blues and then there are the Blues. Musicoligists define one... we can ALL define the other. I like the mix, blues, reds or purples!
