I'm gonna stick my neck out - if they put the spit and polish on this young lady and her band, I suspect they could compete in the big time. This toon makes me want to pour a tall glass of bourbon, light a fat stoagie.... and start planning a hit on US Marshall Raylan Givens! HAR!
My musical inclinations are toward performers like this - the diamonds in the rough, so to speak. I hope they make the big time.
She plays with this guy a lot. What we call South Mississippi Blues. The actor Morgan Freeman lives down there. Clarksville, Mississippi. Folk down there don't seem to have the problems of all the "edumakated jiggs in the cities.

A friend sent me a link to her doing "I Put A Spell On You" a few years ago and my first reaction was - Why on earth is Katy F'n Perry a billionaire and I'm just now finding out about this woman?
ReplyDeleteShe's no amateur, that's for sure. Pretty established now. Easy on the eyes, too.
ReplyDeleteOh jeez, I didn't know she was a big wheel! I know Katie Perry is, but I couldn't pick her songs out or put a face to the name. I have no patience for turd brained celebs anymore. It's nice to see them hit the big time, I suppose, and make a buck... but I don't like what fame does to those people. Maybe it would be best for such people to stay in the little leagues...?
ReplyDeleteSamantha IS the Real Deal. Pretty and pretty prolific as well. Arkansas-born I believe and very talented. No spit OR polish needed, IMHO. Check out "Lay It Down" which is where I discovered her a few years back. Also, sounds a bit like you may have watched "Justified". If not, check it out, Glenn. Keep up the awesome postings.
