How could you not like this. Proper music

[@karla3033]

I have watched this a hundred times, it always makes me grab my own guitar and it always ends up as a dissapointment. What a pleasure to watch Ruthie performe, not just this one.

[@learawson2232]

It was sixties music who wanted find these blues singers to learn from them. And they soared back into popularity.

[@maggieg60]

This is definitely not bluegrass, but it is FINE music. Ruthie Foster has such great talent, especially her voice.

[@alexdesslin]

TRUE SOUL, TRUE ARTIST !

[@erwinschonfeld8975]

Ruthie, you are great, as always!

[@joeblackburn1484]

This is definitely in the bluegrass lane. If you don’t think so then your not that familiar with bluegrass music. With that said, it must sit right in the lap of the Mississippi blues as well. That’s how genres cross each other from time to time. Some would say it’s folk sounding too. I’ve got to see Ruthie. I love her!!
