The queen of the blues passed away yesterday at 80 years young. Man, heaven must have a smoken blues band. RIP Koko.

I was fortunate to have met and spent time with Koko whenever she came to Boston in the 80's.  Not only was she as fine a blues artist as any, she was a truly kind and sweet person who cared for family and friends.  She will be missed.

sometimes you have to bite your lip, exhale and move on.  So, I have.
