You are absolutely correct , and damned if that did not slip past my memory, 
I had a long talk with Herb about that back in 1990 when I got him admitted to 
the Blues Hall of Fame, at the time Herb was 76 years old and married to a 
real cute little 20 something .

I have some fond memories of the ride from the airport with Herb, and her, 
and Hank Ballard and Jimmy Witherspoon,  :)) ROTFLOL just thinking about that 
night and the conversations in that limo, which all went right over her head 
while she was trying to be so sophisticated and talk to us about Herbs career as 
if she had even been born yet during the things we were discussing.  I also 
met Herb and Tempest's Daughter at the event as I recall.

Cheers,

Tom Wiggins
