Jack’s Winning Words 3/28/14
“Good times, ‘Just ‘round the corner!’ so they say.” (W.C. Handy) Handy, The Father of the Blues, died on this date, in 1958. Over 25,000 attended his funeral, with another 150,000 in the streets of Harlem. I’d guess that his most famous song, St. Louis Blues was played at the service. W.C.’s quote is an optimistic one, not consistent with feeling “the blues.” But that’s life. Bad times? Good times are a-comin’. ;-) Jack
