LONG BEACH BLUES FESTIVAL
1993

There was plenty of exciting moments at the 93 festival. As always, Rufus Thomas put on an exciting show. The theme of this year was "Blues from the Delta", and there was a tribute set for Robert Johnson where Rory Block, Keb' Mo' (then he was still called Kevin Moore), John Hammond, Lonnie Pitchford, and Robert Jr. Lockwood shared the stage playing the songs of the legendary bluesman.

The touch of soul music by Denise LaSalle was very refreshing. The Sunday morning set by the Five Blind Boys Of Alabama was very emotional. John Lee Hooker closed out the Fest with his regular set. A good collection of John Lee boogie!
