Set rez to 1080 and get comfortable as Athens, Ga.'s Melting Point presents legendary Beverly "Guitar" Watkins with the Rick Fowler Band (Rick - vocals, guitar / Michael Doke - guitar, vocals / Deane Quinter - drums / Greg Veale - bass, vocals / Tim White - Hammond). Beverly sings and sticks to harmonica, letting Michael and Rick handle the guitars, which are all custom made from reclaimed wood by Deadwood Guitars.

Awesome !!! Great, great blues by the amazing Beverly and the Rick Fowler Band. Wonderful.

[@ldbagwell]

Oh come on man! You are killing me. All my love is pouring out to her.

[@flomoragne3479]

She's amazing -- so gifted & talented! Why was she not as famous/popular as BB King?

[@williampetway8735]

Probably because our black superstars was jealous of her. I spent 50 years going to blues shows and concerts. Never heard of her. Now I know why!! But BB, Buddy Guy had no problem introducing white peoples on their shows. A majority of our performers had to go to Europe to get some Respect! Out of All the Blues people out there, they only gave us BB King, Albert King, Buddy Guy and Bobby Blue Bland.

[@georgekolesarek7344]

B B who ?

[@nickels8861]

Really wish I could have given this very talented & spirited filled woman her flowers......RWG 💖

[@davegeetarwrist5597]

...In a cold and covid constrained England looking for something different on YT,came across this "young"lady.I do not know anything about her....other than that she's an absolutely magnificent find,...and the world is a sadder place for her loss.But her memory is immortalised by these superb 1080 recordings.Her family and friends and fellow musicians must view these "keepsakes" of a beautiful lady with fondness and love.Thank you so much ROTTINGTAPES for putting these superb recordings out there,and I know that Beverly's spirit is out there in the vastness of the universe along with Ma Rainey,Besse Smith,Ella ,....and all the other blues and jazz singers,..spreading the cosmic blues gospel...I'll look you up when I get there...David
