I draw inspiration from them when I play. WHen I meet someone who has soul, I have them take a look through them, explaining I want some of their vibe to rub off on the cards. Then I think of those people later too. I always keep Memphis Minnie on top cause she's my fave.. LOVE IT! Michael Berger If you are a fan of old school blues (the REAL blues), this is a great little collectible!! Really cool little set. Was missing a few guys I thought for sure would be in there(Robert Johnson, Leadbelly). but it is still a great set. If you like old blues, you can't lose.. Very nice for a blues collection!
