I listen to Blues on Sirus XM BB King’s Bluesville Channel everyday. I my humble opinion you are the real deal. I enjoy your guitar playing but it’s your voice that really seals the deal. You just don’t sing the blues you feel the blues. You are a natural.

I hope she will play more slide. One of the goals to reach is - in my humble opinion - the lap style slide recorded by Gitfiddle Jim (Kokomo Arnold) performing his "Paddlin' Madeline Blues" (1930). Now there are three versions of this Leiber/Butler song I love: the New Orleans original by Alvin Robinson, the Rainbow Girls rendition (recorded live in the fields - the one with the starting tractor in the end) and this one. The vocal here is very impressive. The first time I - a Dutch European - heard the song was in 1965 on the second LP of The Rolling Stones. I found the original - and the originals of many other songs on their first albums - later. Nicole Bell honoured - among others - Bessie Smith, Koko Taylor, the magnificent Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Willie Mae "Big Mama" Thornton (the original :"Hound Dog" - not the "cleaned" Elvis version). But I couldn't find a cover of a Memphis Minnie Blues. One of the greatest of the women Blues artists - again: in my humble opinion. Perhaps it's there and I have to look again ... and better ...

I just wished I owned a record company because I'd sign Evan in a heartbeat! Merry Christmas Evan x

[@evannicolebell]

aw! thank you matt! 💗

Go girl go

[@rennyshelton]

I knew I'd heard this song before. Now I remember, the version I heard was by The Coasters. Definitely a few years ago. I do believe I like this better.

[@evannicolebell]

thank you very much! i’ve never heard the coasters version…checking it out now ✨

[@gregmock6808]

Great call and response between the Dobro and your vocals...soul for days my friend! Have you ever covered Taj Mahal or Keb Mo? I do a cover of Take a Giant Step that I think you'd crush. Taj's guitarist Jesse Ed Davis was a slide maestro!

[@evannicolebell]

I haven’t! I need to get into their discographies

[@victorbrown3570]

I'd been thinking it was a while that I hadn't checked on you. Good thing I did as I love me some dobro, slide, and blues. Ok, now I'll take some time to check out Runaway Girl. As usual, I enjoy your whole vibe playing and singing.

[@evannicolebell]

thank you my friend! good to hear from you ☺️🙏🏾

[@jeffschwartz5199]

Nice

[@001minky]

I love your voice.

[@smokescreen4x]

Evan! I love this…and I particularly love the mini run! Your day is coming because you’re just too good not to be noticed! Keep going, I’m loving it ❤

[@evannicolebell]

thank you so much 😍🙏🏾✨

[@KennethMoyer-t3y]

Coasters are nice, but they improve when there is a cup of hot black with a bit of sweetness in it. Lethal smile!

So fabulous! And I love when you sing in front of Christmas trees. ❤

Those deep notes ring... being a blues contralto is a tall order... Think of Ma Rainey or Bessie Smith...

Nice choice! I like the subtle changes you’ve made with your voice. It sounds deeper and more musical. This is a favorite tune of mine. I’ve been listening to a Tom Petty version he did on Austin City Limits.

[@evannicolebell]

I didn’t know tom petty had a version - i’ll have to check it out!

Love this song! Have you heard the Rainbow Girls version?

[@evannicolebell]

yep, if you read my description you’ll see they were the inspiration for this cover!

[@dwaynejessome1728]
