If you have ever been to MEMPHIS TENNESSEE, you know her : her kinfolks consider her as the best living example of the world-famous Memphis Blues sound (maybe just after her godfather, the great B.B. King)

If you have seen the last Robert Altman movie "Cookie's Fortune", you know her, she is "Josie", the lady blues club-owner, and she sings the title song of the moovie, written for her by guitar player Dave Stewart, and she sure enough does it with SOUL!

From "Cookie's Fortune Production Notes" : "Robert Altman se rendit à Memphis dans le quartier de Beale Street pour dénicher la chanteuse et le patron du "Theo's Bar", un décor-clé de COOKIE'S FORTUNE au même titre que le cabaret de SHORT CUTS ou la boite de jazz de KANSAS CITY. C'est ainsi qu'il découvrit à la fois Rufus Thomas et la chanteuse Ruby Wilson, qui se révéla un choix idéal pour le rôle de la belle et sensuelle Josie."

 And if you were in Paris and attended one of her appearances there, you sure remember her, because

nobody there had ever heard anything like this!

And when she sings about LOVE, there is no way you can resist !
