R.L.I.P.
Via Largehearted Boy, I learned ol' R.L. Burnside's gone as of last Thursday. The Telegraph has a fine obituary, including this little summation of the blues:
"I didn't mean to kill nobody," Burnside later said of the murder. "I just meant to shoot the sonofabitch in the head. Him dying was between him and the Lord."
A lost verse to "Boogie Chillun"?
Also, God save New Orleans, and may the devil excavate an even deeper hell for our worthless leader.
