Yes, I know...it's VIDEOsift, but please excuse this one for me?

I've been looking for something of this incredible woman for a long time now. She was legend in N.C. as one of oldest piedmont blues guitarist around. She IS piedmont blues.

She died last year at 93. I saw an interview of her last year and instantly loved this lady. She was sitting in her backyard in an old folding lounge chair playing for the interviewer. If anyone comes across any video of her, please let me know?

This is the best example of old piedmont mountain finger picking around. So sweet
