"Etta Baker stumped me hard. Her style was completely different. I like to think of myself as a well educated blues musician, but I must admit that I'd never played the Piedmont style, so I was a bit nervous. After a brief lesson, she kicked it off, and I just tried to keep up as best I could." -Kenny Wayne Shepherd

Beautiful video of a beautiful musician. Thanks for sharing this.

I had the honor of meeting Etta at her home. A friend and I had always been fans and so as we were driving through Morganton, we called Etta to see if we could drop by and say hello. She had no idea who we were but asked us to come on by. She was so gracious and we had a beautiful visit. She died the following year...she is missed.

"The sound of anything tuning up gives me happiness." Wasn't she lovely?

How graceful! This 90 year old lady didn't grow old. She stayed forever young.

Thats what happened to me... I was sitting up late one night watching PBS and KWS's video came up and introduced me to a whole new level of blues music. I can't quit the blues. I'm hooked.

I'm sorry for your loss. Even if it is a littl bit late to say so. I only heard of her very recently, unfortunately.

Yes, once...back in like 2001.

Did you ever meet her?

I'm sure that thanks to Kenny Wayne's dvd release quite a few folk will discover the beauty of Etta's music who perhaps otherwise might not have come across that.

Lovely lady - great blues player and sadly missed.
