Blues classics and rock era remakes: I think I finally figured out why I often

prefer the "white" version. It really has nothing to do with race-affiliation or identification. It's age. When these songs first became known to the larger audience in the 60s, the black blues stars already were a generation or two removed. It just looked and sounded weird to hear a guy old enough to be your grandfather singing sexually obvious lyrics. Kind of gross, actually, like watchin' the Stones now do "Satisfaction." At their age, that feeling is most often felt in the fact of simply waking up every morning or making it through a concert without filling up their Depends.
