That Other Place

One of my all-time favorite singers, Bobby "Blue" Bland, and a 1974 live performance from the Midnight Special. It seems that there is no surviving video footage of him from his sixties heydey (please prove me wrong!), so this is probably as close as you can get.

He visited Finland only once, in 1994, and I'm happy to report that I was there and he was still great!

Another video from the Midnight Special TV show - the always wonderful Gladys Knight & the Pips and "Neither One Of Us", one of their last Motown hits, before they moved to even greater success at Buddah.
