We are the DELTA CHILDREN--just CLEO AND I.We are underground, and have no interest in being a part of a big city blues click. We don*t need no BIG BOSS MAN.What does the blues mean to me. It means being eighteen years old and finding your first child dead, it means driving a taxi cab in l967 and having a cop tell you to park it because the city is buring,It means marrying three men who want you to be beautiful, working, smart, and dumb. It means changing bandages, and cleaning up the blood, but having the boss say
*you didn*t do enought. It means almost being killed three times by people you trusted. It means forgiving a family that stops speaking to you because a cult told them you were evil. It means having pain so bad you think you will never walk again, but being to proud to tell anyone. A true blues woman dosen*t just say *look at me*, she says feel some of what i feel, and maybe we can help each other. Blues is more than about my own selfesh little problems, it is the problems of the world. love you alll Mary

He*s is a real bluesman from the lowlands.--but he likes that upbeat jazz. We have combined our sounds into sometime we call *OLD SCHOOL*At last , my love has come along.
I don*t own a five hundred dollar dress covered with gold. I didn*t go to church to learn about soul. I don*t carry an attitude. My name is Mary Thompson, trying to play the blues.,
You are going to love "Driving in the Chicken Lane, and the "Checker Cab Blues" Most of the songs were written by Mary Thompson (me). I heard it*s getting airtime in Ohio and California. I don*t know, because I don*t have time to listen at radio. I know people over 50 love the music. For information on making a donation---write me at Mary Thompson/ P.O. Box 39274 Redford, MI.48239 Love you all, and hope we make into 2000. God bless you and keep you all. Mary/Cleo

I can no longer run around the stage like I use to and play guitar. Oh, *the things use to do, I can*t do no more. They tell me I still got a pretty good old voice and can still play some lowdown blues., sitting down. Got to take it easy. We would love to see or hear from some of our old band or some ot the ones we played with. Hi Tony Berci, Steve McCaunghly, yell, I still misspell you name, where is the great Paul Buliot?, and Emmitte, we have been trying to reach you. Quinton Harris is in New York. Love you Quinton. Thank you to our friends at the Miami for wishing me a happy birthday. We still have CD and will do another one in May. Oh --I forgot about Mike. You play a mean riff. I want to thank anyone who likes this web site enough to link to it. Hi to all our Jam Rag family and the earth community. Hi Cindy D, and Susan S. Hope to see you all son. Love Mary
