And the Blues community will honor her as well.<br /><br />But you have had your hands full of late. <br />It is sweet to hear such a gifted singer in a small venue where you catch the nuances of the artist. <br /><br />She lived a good full life-- to 80 years old & was able to do the thing she loved so well, right up to the end. <br />That's a blessing!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-34552845152456520912009-06-07T13:13:21.801-07:002009-06-07T13:13:21.801-07:00Koko Taylor used to come to Salt Lake and sing in ...Koko Taylor used to come to Salt Lake and sing in a small club called the Zypher. It was about the only time I ever wanted to go to a crowded club. To hear her in a small venue was worth the annoyance of being around other people. Koko was always divine. <br /><br />I had no idea she'd died. Thank you for this lovely tribute to her enormous talent. She was a real blues legend.Utah Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16385093247915560752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-85541304897576498262009-06-07T10:55:05.104-07:002009-06-07T10:55:05.104-07:00Cried Like a Baby is my all time favorite of her&#...Cried Like a Baby is my all time favorite of her's Fran. <br /><br />I have been playing her music non-stop since she passed. :(Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698117410778232102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-38130652286130489892009-06-07T10:52:59.976-07:002009-06-07T10:52:59.976-07:00You & me both love the blues....

I grew up in Chi town. <br />So sorry she was not up to making it to that concert. <br />That woulda iced the musical cake. <br /><br />I saw the tribute you posted with that great tune "Cried like a baby". (It was late & I was tired, so I did not comment)... wow that was a sweet sampling of her artistic prowess. <br /><br />She was so talented.... had the blues deep down in her soul. One of a kind. <br /><br />She'll be jamming with the greats in the next life, for sure.Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-23153327049255111472009-06-07T09:40:19.050-07:002009-06-07T09:40:19.050-07:00You know I love the blues..so Koko was one of my f...You know I love the blues..so Koko was one of my favorites.
