R.I.P. Honeyboy Edwards
Honeyboy Edwards died peacefully at his home around 3 a.m. last night. This puts an end to a magnificent life of travels, folklore, and authentic blues that influenced so many after him.

What an amazing career he had. The changes he's experienced are amazing. First PineTop now Honeyboy. 2011 hasn't been kind to the blues.
