Here is the continuation of the conversation Barrence and I had on July 22, 2024, which was published on August 19 of this year as our first podcast – The Mercy Brothers Talking.. That conversation ends with him saying, “Come on, let’s go upstairs.” So….. I sat, as Barrence pulled out all kinds of records that we were, well mostly him, talking about on the ride up a couple of floors. He started out with a record I had never heard before by Rambling Thomas called “No Job Blues.” The Rising Suns followed with “The Devil’s Got My Woman” into “My Baby’s Not My Baby Anymore” by Bobby Lloyd and then The Intruders with “Fried Eggs.” All songs that were completely new to me. I mentioned before The Rising Suns’ spin that I thought I had heard a version of “The Devil’s Got My Woman” but it was not that song; some other old blues instead. Barrence followed The Intruders up with Carl Belew’s “Gator Shoes” and ended with “The Living Dead” by Jim Burgett. We’ll be back with you shortly with another great podcast by The Mercy Brothers Talking.
