Johnny Shines - Johnny Shines With Big Walter Horton ( Full Album ) 1969 If a white person is unemployed, if they are burdened by endless worries, they are in the right state of mind to make blues... otherwise, with practice, they may become a good musician, but they will always lack the feelin'. A wealthy bourgeois, with a calm and comfortable life, regardless of skin color, will never be a Bluesman......Johnny Shines.
