Pinetop Perkins
      
This week on Time for the Blues (4/24/11), John Porter and Henry Cook pay tribute to one of the true blues giants, Pinetop Perkins.  Pinetop passed away peacefully at home on March 21, 2011 at the tender age of 97.  We also remember our friend and colleague Page Wilson, a player and supporter of the blues. Page passed away in March as well.
