Bobby Rush has a way with words. At 85, the blues singer writes about the world in a rural American vernacular that has all but disappeared. “If you have a chicken and you’re feeding him, if you take away its food like corn, they squawk,” the “Chicken Heads” singer recently told, speaking about the imagery used in his brand new song “Good Stuff.” “When you feed [a hog], you say you’re ‘sloppin’ a hog’…If you put the trough up on his noise and snatch it away from him, he’ll squeal because he wants it.”, Rush’s first release since his Grammy-winning 2016 LP.
“I like the way you carry yourself girl, you’re so cool,” he sings, “You’ve got a sweet personality and a smile so bright/You can make a man do wrong when he won’t do right.” Rush is one of the very last of his generation of bluesmen still making new music and regularly performing. His new albumwill be released on August 16th. As Rush puts it: “I’m a bluesman who’s sitting on the top of my game, proud of what I do and proud of who I am.” Bobby Rush is touring the U.S. through November.

We are evidently to believe that in 1969, a heroic crew of astronauts led by Neil Armstrong voyaged to Earth’s moon, descended to its surface, played a rip-roaring jazz-blues number featuring Armstrong on saxophone, and then returned safely to terra firma.
