#1926 - CeDell Davis with Jimbo Mathus

Last Man Standing, CeDell Davis's brand new record, is aptly titled. The 89 year old may be the very last of a generation of itinerant musicians that once travelled the Memphis and Delta region playing blues in juke joints and on street corners. Also with us this week is BSC contributor David Less. David will be continuing his series, The Memphis Beat.
