My mom moved up between Leland and Greenville when I was just a little tot.
And one of my favorites was Eddy Arnold of course. He just had that smooth, soulful voice.
I was never into the Bluegrass, Bill Monroe and stuff like that.
I'm from the Mississippi delta originally.
I was born in a little place called Inverness, MS.
We could play them through the week, and then the weekend we could play the black joints. I learned to be very versatile and learned to love it. So it stays with me even up to now.
