Just as Bluzer and I were talking about the original, real-deal blues, another player from the Chicgo blues era has passed away. Nick Holt, the younger brother of Morris Holt (Magic Slim), died yesterday.
Together, they formed the heart of Magic Slim and the Teardrops, an old-school Chicago blues band that has been carrying that torch fo decades. Nick hadn't toured recently, but he was there to help build the sound at the beginning. Here's an item from the online Blues Report.
