Louis Jordan – Messy Bessy (1954)

I’m a relative newcomer to all this “Twitbook” © malarkey but it has given me a new perspective into the lifestyles of my friends, family and colleagues…..

The main two, related, questions that this new insight has raised for me are: (a) how come my life seems to be so much less interesting then everyone else’s, and; (b) why does adding a new post to this blog pretty much represent the pinnacle of my excitement?

Having logged those questions for further consideration, I do note that a few people appear to be constantly in the pub. With this in mind, I think this track might provide useful advice for how to manage this lifestyle.

Another classic track on the fantastic Aladdin Records label by the towering king of the jump blues, Louis Jordan, with sage advice for the women of the world…..

Don’t get messy Bessy

Keep your whiskey quiet

When you’ve had a couple of drinks, woman

You might just start a riot

Quite.
