I just found out that my favorite bluesman, Guitar Shorty, has won Contemporary Blues Album of the Year at the 2007 Blues Music Awards a few days ago. For Shorty’s bio, photos, and even a video of Shorty in his early days, playing “The Thrill Is Gone” while standing on his head, is archived in my blog at: http://www.advicesisters.net/2007/02/last-night-my-friends-and-i-went-to-seeThe most highly regarded award ceremony in the Blues industry for performers, the Blues Music Awards Awards are considered the “Blues Grammys¹.” Blues Music Awards are the premier event for Blues professionals, musicians and fans. Held in Memphis, the focus of this celebration is to recognize superior achievements in Blues performances while honoring a cultural tradition.
