Before things went awry on the technical front I had posted two Washington related posts here and here. I thought I just about had enough material for a third and final post and somewhat belatedly here it is.
Initially the posts focussed on musical artists with Washington as either their first name or surname.As is the way of such things when it gets trickier it gets more flexible or for the more cynical among you more spurious.
Cecil Washington was a 60's Soul Singer and a big Northern Soul favourite from Washington DC. His featured song here is I Don't Like to Lose
I'm indebted to Ernie for providing me with some songs by Blues artist Walter "Wolfman" Washington, one of which is Goody Man.
Albert Washington was a Georgian Blues and Soul singer who led a group called The Kings Variations.Today's offering is Hold Me Baby.
That's the artists called Washington exhausted which leaves us with Woodie Guthrie and his Washington Talking Blues.
We conclude this mini series with the great Iris DeMent and a song called There is a Wall in Washington about the national Vietnam Veterans Memorial which attracts more than five million people each year.
That's all folks.
Cecil Washington - I Don't Like to Lose
Walter "Wolfman" Washington - Groovy Man
Albert Washington - Hold Me Baby
You saved the best until the last track on the last of the series. Thanks for finding room for the Wolfman.
