This week Funky Friday has been cancelled

But in the meantime this is absolutely magical and ever so slightly surreal (for Saturday).

Sister Rosetta Tharpe filmed in 1964 at a disused railway station In Manchester, England. The band performed on one platform while the audience were seated on the opposite platform.

Hunted a live version of this much loves tune by Neal Casal down tonight on Youtube. Delicious.

And that was a bit downbeat for you then here’s a bit of Janis. (Bet you didn’t know that Bez of Happy Mondays fame got his dancing style from Joplin!)
