Let’s take a moment to shine the spotlight on the legendary big Joe Williams a true Titan of the Delta blues, whose nine-string guitar unleashed a sound as deep as the Mississippi River itself. Now, if you’ve ever had the pleasure of listening to his music, you know he was all about the raw emotional vibe that pulls at your heartstrings.

Now, let’s dig into those lyrics from his classic Christmas Blues. Big Joe sings Christmas is almost here. Little girl what you want to do for me? You can just feel the warmth and intimacy of the moment. He’s not just talking about the holiday season .In this line, you get the sense that big Joe is reflecting on love.

So while Christmas Blues might have a title that hints at sorrow, it’s really about that yearning for connection. For sharing moments that matter, especially during this time of year. That’s the genius of Big Joe Williams. He was a storyteller at heart, weaving his life experiences into the fabric of the blues.

As we dive into the groove of his music, let’s celebrate not just the man but the legacy he left behind. Let that-nine-string magic of Big Joe lift your spirits and get you ready to celebrate the season.

You’re listening to Podcast and Blues. I’m your host, Gail Nobles.
