I'D RATHER GO BLIND ~ KOKO TAYLOR

Since Amazon didn't have enough copies of a piano book that I need to purchase for three new piano students, I am under the $25 purchase amount needed to get free shipping, so I have been sampling blues music at Amazon trying to get my order up. Unfortunately I only need $.50 more. I found some great blues songs, but only in the sampling length. So, I went to youtube looking for the whole song of I'd Rather Go Blind and found this by Koko Taylor

I JUST FOUND HER AND SHE'S ALREADY GONE ~ EVA CASSIDY

SINGING IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL

When Angels Sing ~ Eva Is Among Them


I happened to find Eva because I followed a link to one of my reader's posts and there was a song by Eva Cassidy posted. The song was Fields of Gold. My favorite uploader at Youtube is CasaLucita. Here is You Take My Breath Away. But there are so many songs that I love of Eva's. This one is so appropriately named ~ Songbird.

What a Wonderful World ~ So moving that she chose this song to be her last song to us.

What have we done with our gifts?

A sobering thought.

You Send Me sung by Sam Cooke

I have always loved to sing. It's better than listening to someone else do it. Something connects when I sing. It is a spiritual thing. It makes me more alive.
