Stumbled on this video last night featuring blues harmonica legend Lazy Lester, performing “They Call Me Lazy” a few months ago in Lafayette, Louisiana with the L’il Buck Sinegal Band. I just love these old-school Loosiana musicians who look like they were cleaning catfish an hour earlier.

Watching this video, don’t you just want to be there?
