It’s #Blues man Muddy Waters birthday today, April 4 (1913-ish) and to celebrate him starting off on harmonica and a “broken down #accordion” this week’s episode of @accordionnoir radio is a tangle of different squeezebox blues styles

From Muddy Waters himself (with #GarthHudson of The Band on ) to #CountryMusic #Klezmer #CajunMusic #Zydeco #Bluegrass and #Jazz

With the world as it is, a little blues seemed like the thing to do

Sadly, Garth Hudson has died. He was 87.

An extraordinary musician. The end of an era.

“It's long, long when she's gone
I get weary holding on
Now I'm coldly fading fast
I don't think I'm gonna last very much longer”

I pulled in to Nazareth
Was feeling 'bout half past dead
I just need someplace
Where I can lay my head
"Hey, mister, can you tell me
Where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand
NO was all he said
Take a load off, Fanny
Take a load for free
Take a load off, Fanny
And
You put the load right on me
