Yellow Dog Blues

It’s morning. Bo Willie finds the dog house empty and the gate wide open. Farmer Fred says Yellow Dog ran off onto Highway 61. Bo Willie jumps in Aunt Jessie’s pink Cadillac to look for the missing puppy. Their search leads them from juke points to tamale stands to streets ringing with the music of B.B. King and Muddy Waters. Where did the Yellow Dog go? A boogie-woogie journey along the Mississippi Blues Trail.
