Beverly "Guitar" Watkins!
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I met Beverly when she was playing on the streets of the Underground in Atlanta. She put on a tremendous show and she was obviously a star. We started booking package shows and Beverly consistently tore down the house. She came up under Piano Red and cut records with him back in the 50s and 60s. She plays low-down, hard stompin', railroad-smokin' blues. She'll tell you, "people are impressed to see a black woman play like a man."

It was so nice to talk to you in the food tent at the Blues Passions Festival.
I'm one of your biggest fans now! ...and I hope that we get to meet again.
Here is my wish for the very best to you and all my LiveBluesWorld friends as we take the music of our heritage into 2009 and the 21st century.
It's an honor to be on this journey with you. ..and a pleasure to be your friend. Thank you for allowing me to be a member of the community.
..."true greats" ...are not those born with "golden spoons" in their mouths. ...but those who through "hard work" turn their own "wooden spoons" into "gold".
"...the re-emergence of blues music as serious social commentary."
