Those of you that know me well, will know that I have a thing for the blues. Well I think I heard one of the finest songs of my life today. By the absolutely incredible 'Blind Boys of Alabama', the track is called 'You and your folks/Psalm 23'. This lot formed at the 'Alabama Institute for the Negro Blind' in the 30's and the three founding members are indeed all as blind as the proverbial bats. However, what they lose in the vision department, they make up for in the vocal department. I know it is .79 pence, but screw it, just buy the track and you will not regret it. This is as close as it gets for me. It just goes to prove, some things get better with age.
