"My previous post on "**Etta Baker**":http://mog.com/blog_post/view/141809#comment-534479 can be read here, if you wish.But I'd like you to "**Go here and read this**":http://www.musicmaker.org/This 1998 recording features Etta Baker & Tal Mahal, two kindred spirits. Nothing earth shattering, no histrionics, just good back-porch music.Sometimes it doesn't get any better.BTW Etta Baker was born in 1913.(do the math, I think she's over fifty!)

  2. Bartleby says Another beautiful song... I did the maths and methinks Ms Baker was 85 when she recorded this. I can't believe my ears at her guitar plucking.

  3. Spike says Plus, she's white. Let's see how well we do at 85 and post a report to other Moggers.

  5. dermahrk says Sorry, didn't read the song title. Obviously, a kazoo was beyond their budget.
