Whatever.  Today, with towel in hand, Tail Dragger gave a mesmerizing performance.  On the surface, it was rooted deep in Chicago blues traditions that many others have sucessfully mined over the years.  Yet, Tail Dragger is the real deal.  There are not too many veterans like him around any more.  I am glad I dragged myself out of bed into the heat.
