No...not those St. Louis Blues. On 2/19/10 I attended a concert for a local artist named Pokey LaFarge, he and his band, the South City Three, play rag time blues in the tradition of Leadbelly. Their sound is unmistakeable and infectious and their look, well, it's totally unique and utterly dapper. Their most recent CD release, Riverboat Soul (available on PokeyLaFarge.net and Amazon.com) is a mainstay in my car and my iPod and I dare you to try and not tap your toes/snap your fingers along with the beat!
