Amazing Live of Rock Me Baby by 78 Year Old Beverly Watkins


“Ya’ll ready for a little blues?” Beverly “Guitar” Watkins, recently recovered from a bout of pneumonia, performing with the Rick Fowler Band at the Foundry in Athens, Ga. Grateful to be on stage, the energetic 78-year-old blues legend has been performing since the ’50s when she was a member of Piano Red’s band in Atlanta, Ga. The Rick Fowler Band also has a lifetime of experience and is a world-class ensemble that skillfully supports Beverly whenever they play together.
Rick Fowler – guitar, vocals.
Michael Doke – slide guitar, vocals.
Deane Quinter – drums, vocals.
Greg Veale – bass, vocals.
Tim White – Hammond organ.

78 years young here, what a talent! She makes that guitar sing!
The coolest thing is that the older blues guitarists didn’t copy each other much. They all had their own thing that they did so it sounds so original and fresh. Amazing!

There is NO WAY on this earth that you can dislike this beautiful woman. She’s Awesome. Rest In Peace Beverly!

Lyrics:
Rock me baby, rock me all night long
Rock me baby, honey rock me all night long
I want you to rock me baby
Like my back ain’t got no bone

Rock me baby
Honey i want you to rock me slow
Rock me baby
Honey i want you to rock me slow
Want you to rock me baby
Till i want no more

Rock me baby
Like you roll a wagon wheel
Roll me baby
Like you roll a wagon wheel
I want you to roll me baby
You don’t know how that makes me feel

Rock me baby
Honey rock me all night long
Rock me, rock me, rock me, rock me, baby
Honey rock me all night long
I want you to rock me baby
Like my back ain’t got no bone
