This is just so sooooothing. One of the songs I always turn to when I'm feeling down. Soon as i hear that 'easy baby' and I'm half way there. The blues sure does hurt so good.
Easy baby, hm, easy baby
Easy baby, won't you love me night and day?
You don't have to work all day, just to make love to me and say
Easy baby, hm, easy baby
Easy baby, will daddy love you night and day?
You don't have to treat me right, just kiss me baby and hold me tight
Easy baby, hm, easy baby
Easy baby, will daddy love you night and day?
When I bought the CD Black Magic at a used record store in St. Paul, MN twenty five years ago, I had never heard of Magic Sam. I was just browsing and took a chance. It was a great introduction to his music then and is still some of the best blues I listen to today. For an album recorded over fifty years ago, I’m still amazed at the sound quality. It sounds like it was made just yesterday, with the all the modern day bells and whistles. The original sound engineer (or re-engineer) must have been a genius.
I hope future generations get to know and appreciate Magic Sam.
