Nice lookin' collection. I have a feeliing that Too Cool McCool is really hot.

A guy in my area is offering a blues seminar that promises to teach, among other things,
"what a "mojo" is and why many famous blues artists were blind or crippled...." Anybody got any information on either of those?

Oh... and about Mixxer's question about the blind or crippled blues artists: In several books the authors have noted that in the 1920s-30s there were virtually no vocational opportunities available to blind or disabled individuals, thus many turned to music to eke out a living.

Re: mojo"
A mojo was a magical charm or amulet, often kept in a bag containing various roots and powders and sometimes a "mojo hand", the dried paw of a monkey or cat (hence, "going down to New Orleans to get me a black cat hand"). Most often used as a love charm or aphrodisiac.
"Scarey day Blues":"My good gal got a mojo, she's trying to keep it hid / But Georgia Bill got something to find that mojo with / I said she got that mojo, and she won't let me see / And every time I start to love her, she's tried to put them jinx on me."

Bluest of the blues from beginning to end, from Leadbelly & Blind Lemon to Katie & Koko. Solid.
