[G] On the last day of the recording session, the artists got together and said their goodbyes.
Willie Dixon looked around the studio and said,
there ain't never been a blues meeting like this ever.
And he was right.
There never was, and there never would be again.
Most of these guys are gone now, but like the blues itself,
their stories go on forever, in the music for generations to come.
