This was the music that led me to meet Mississippi Fred's wife Ms. Annie Mae McDowell at their house trailer in Como, Mississippi fall 1978. This was the music that brought me back to Mississippi three years later fall 1981 where I first met R.L. Burnside at his home in Coldwater, Mississippi as he was driving down the road leading to his house on his way back to driving his "Boss Man's" tractor after a lunch break. That night I went back and jammed with R.L. and a few friends. And wound up spending the night on his couch. After R.L. came out to the west coast for a short tour spring 1982, a few weeks later I followed R.L. back to Mississippi that summer and hung our playing and riding around with R.L. and his family. Mississippi Fred McDowell's music is why I toured with R.L. for 12 years between 1982 thru 1994. In the winter of 1986 at a gig we were doing in NYC Tom Pomposel showed up. Tom had played bass behind Fred on the album MISSISIPPI FRED MCDOWELL LIVE IN NEW YORK. Before following R.L. onstage Tom handed me his "magic stone." It had brought him luck when he backed up Fred In a similar situation all those years ago. I thanked Tom and found myself touching that stone throughout the night! A few years went by and though R.L. and I spoke regularly it wasn't until spring and summer 1999 we had a chance to play together again onstage several times. It felt fine as always. Unfortunately though R.L. kept touring through at least 2001 R.L.'s health began to decline until he passed away late summer 2005. A mighty depressing day. But R.L. was out of his pain. Before that in the fall of 2001 I helped a shaky walking R.L. back to his trailer after a festival in Oregon. He was tired and needed his heart medicine. It was getting close to the time maybe the last Mississippi Hill Country Delta Blues player truly of the Mississippi Fred McDowell era was about to spend his remaining time left on earth surrounded by family. Sad for the rest of us but it was where R.L. needed to be. During the time I knew and worked with R.L. the harmonica is what I mainly played, but also some guitar and also in between tours Eddie "Guitar" Burns, and other great country blues folk but R.L. is who I mostly learned and played with. We recorded alot but we only had two CDs. We recorded ACOUSTIC STORIES in New York in 1987 and the CD WELL...WELL...WELL a collection of songs with R.L. alone and with myself recorded between 1982 thru 1994. Both produced by Louis X Erlanger and released on MC Records. Hopefully over the years I have learned a touch of that incredible sweet slide guitar chunking bass thing going on that Fred taught R.L. Free McDowell passed away before I could meet him. But I was greatful to meet Annie Mae McDowell, the Rev. Curtis Abram, Otha Turner, Junior Kimbrough, Cedric Burnside, Johnny Woods and a few other magical players of the Delta Hill Country Blues tradition during the times I was in and out of Mississippi. All of whom were influenced I believe by Mississippi Fred McDowell as they all influenced each other. And thankfully Mississippi Fred McDowell influenced all of us weather we're players, or listeners. Giving us his incredible gift. Thanks for posting this. Brings back great memories.

@@dianebarnes4446 Thank you Diane for that very kind comment on my playing on WELL...WELL...WELL... . R.L. was like family to me as was his wife Alice Mae, and his family. Before Fat Possum there were many people who helped keep R.L.'s career alive. Fat Possum recorded R.L. in ways that made him relevant to the current music scene of the time. That was after I'd played with him. But during live gigs with another guitar player Kenny Brown, and Cedric on drums R.L. played the same low down blues at those gigs in front of thousands of people that he played with me as a duo in front of as few as a half dozen people at The Maple Leaf in New Orleans. Anyway whenever he played wherever he played what century he played in--R.L. Burnside played THE BLUES. It was a great honor to be part of that from 1981 thru 1994 and knowing R.L. sitting in with him was fine but knowing R.L. as my friend was the greatest blessing of it all. Acoustic Stories is another CD I'm on with R.L. They've got my first and last names wrong-- I was living in Holland when Lou Erlanger produced it-- And Lou forgot I played guitar on KINDHEARTED WOMAN and MEET ME IN THE BOTTOM which gives a bit different perspective to our playing. But the good news is that the CD exists. I've worked up a list of all the various videos and recordings I could find with R.L. And I on KZfaq. I'm doing some music and writing projects in regards to us and if you're interested in me sharing that music list with you you're welcome to contact me at: jonbeckleymorris@gmail.com Again.... thanks for the fine compliment about my playing on WELL...WELL...WELL I hear every mistake I make! But old Rule Burnside he covered me pretty well....as partners do for each other. And what a partner R.L. Burnside was.😎 Jon Beckley Morris KZfaq RIP R.L. Burnside 1926 - 2005 You are greatly missed by so many.
