Wow thanks for the Mojo links...great info!!! Love this!!! I guess Muddy's Mojo didn't work on the judge... Will the real 'Mojo Man' please stand up! Would you believe there was a caucasian actor/singer/guitarist/composer by the name of Preston Foster.Wikipedia and other websites are crediting 'Got My Mojo Working' to this Hollywood star! [laughing] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preston_FosterQuote: 'Defendant Preston Foster, also known as Red Foster, attended parts of the trial. A Black man, about forty years of age, he appeared with bleached blonde hair and highly modish clothing.' mcir.usc.edu/cases/1970-1979/Pages/strachborneoarc.htmlQuote:'Preston Foster is one of the shyest human beings I've ever met' Rabinowitz says. www.daremusic.com/mojo.htmThe Afro-American Preston Foster sure didn't qualify to become an actor! Will be continued:I'm working on it.

I am currently starting a research project on Blind Joe Reynolds. I am having a hard time finding credible source material though. I know of Wardlow's book and have found his recorded interviews, but I would really like to reach out to the man himself. If you have or know anyone who has any contact info that may be useful I would very much appreciate it. You can E-mail me at: kirby.rambin@gmail.com. Thank you for your help.
