1
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,960
What would we do, baby, without us?

2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,720
And there

3
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:20,600
ain't no nothing we can't love each
other through.

4
00:00:21,180 --> 00:00:26,180
What would we do, baby, without us?

5
00:00:28,620 --> 00:00:32,920
My stardust melody.

6
00:00:34,730 --> 00:00:37,530
The memory of love's refrain.

7
00:00:41,910 --> 00:00:48,350
Okay, that was a Hoagy Carmichael
standard stardust sung by the great Mel

8
00:00:48,350 --> 00:00:50,730
on the Master Seal label.

9
00:00:51,130 --> 00:00:55,070
This is W .L .E .L., voice of Leland
University, and you're listening to

10
00:00:55,070 --> 00:00:56,210
Syncopated Money.

11
00:00:59,210 --> 00:01:04,069
The only radio show that combines
classic American music with in -depth

12
00:01:04,069 --> 00:01:05,190
of the business scene.

13
00:01:06,470 --> 00:01:07,570
I'm Alex Keaton.

14
00:01:08,230 --> 00:01:11,990
Alex Keaton, how can you miss him? He's
so cute!

15
00:01:19,090 --> 00:01:22,970
Okay. Hey, we've got a guest here in the
WLEL studio. This is Lauren Miller,

16
00:01:23,130 --> 00:01:27,390
psychology student here at Leland
University, lover of American music, and

17
00:01:27,390 --> 00:01:30,210
hopelessly devoted girlfriend of yours
truly, Alex Keaton.

18
00:01:31,150 --> 00:01:32,950
Alex Keaton, he's so cute.

19
00:01:36,010 --> 00:01:38,290
Alex, please, I don't want to go on the
radio.

20
00:01:38,630 --> 00:01:41,070
Help me out, help me out. Well, you can
talk about anything you want. Just try

21
00:01:41,070 --> 00:01:42,070
to tie it into music.

22
00:01:42,350 --> 00:01:44,210
So, honey bunch, what you got in your
mind?

23
00:01:45,170 --> 00:01:46,410
Do you want to go to the movies tonight?

24
00:01:48,330 --> 00:01:50,570
Bebop, bebop, doo -wah, doo -wah.

25
00:01:51,570 --> 00:01:56,610
Okay, well, honey, actually, I'm going
to be busy tonight. But, listen, I don't

26
00:01:56,610 --> 00:01:59,130
think the listeners are interested in
hearing about our personal life.

27
00:01:59,910 --> 00:02:00,910
Oh, hey.

28
00:02:01,130 --> 00:02:02,330
W -L -E -L, you're on the air.

29
00:02:02,790 --> 00:02:04,590
Hi, this is Bill from Alpha Lambda Phi.

30
00:02:05,230 --> 00:02:06,490
I'll go to the movies with you, Lauren.

31
00:02:09,169 --> 00:02:11,450
In fact, our whole third floor will go
with you.

32
00:02:14,330 --> 00:02:19,130
Well, Bill, I think that's going to be a
tough one for her to pass up, but I'll

33
00:02:19,130 --> 00:02:20,130
let her handle it for herself.

34
00:02:23,730 --> 00:02:25,390
What movie would you guys like to see?

35
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,480
Shade, time to spin a little wax with a
blue tint as we get aboard the Keaton

36
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,840
Blues train and chug on up to a station
marked Blues.

37
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:46,780
Okay, this is I Feel So Good by the
late, great, legendary Eddie Dupree.

38
00:02:46,780 --> 00:02:48,560
knows we miss him so.

39
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:54,860
I got a letter and it come to me by
mail.

40
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:01,000
My baby said she's coming home and I
hope that she don't.

41
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:02,240
Yeah, hello, W -L -E -L.

42
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:04,680
Is this Keaton?

43
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,260
Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Alex Keaton, the
only DJ with a sound fiscal policy.

44
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:11,620
Do you have a request?

45
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:13,960
Yes, I have a request.

46
00:03:15,220 --> 00:03:16,320
I'm Eddie Dupree.

47
00:03:16,540 --> 00:03:20,400
My request is before you go around
burying people, I wish you'd get their

48
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,400
permission first.

49
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,620
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. You're
really Eddie Dupree?

50
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:28,360
That's right.

51
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,320
You're still alive?

52
00:03:32,490 --> 00:03:33,490
and listen to you on the radio.

53
00:03:38,510 --> 00:03:42,350
Mr. Dupree, I haven't seen your name on
a record in, it's got to be, 15 years.

54
00:03:43,070 --> 00:03:44,070
Close to 25.

55
00:03:45,170 --> 00:03:46,170
Wow.

56
00:03:46,850 --> 00:03:47,789
I'm sorry.

57
00:03:47,790 --> 00:03:48,790
I apologize.

58
00:03:49,790 --> 00:03:53,430
I'm a really big fan of yours. I had no
idea that you weren't dead, you know,

59
00:03:53,430 --> 00:03:54,430
that you were just washed up.

60
00:03:57,130 --> 00:03:59,870
What I am is a bus dropper right here in
Columbus.

61
00:04:00,650 --> 00:04:01,650
Listen,

62
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,300
I'd love to talk to you sometime.

63
00:04:03,860 --> 00:04:05,640
Maybe have you right here on the show.

64
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,920
We could discuss your views on music.

65
00:04:08,420 --> 00:04:09,980
I have no views on music.

66
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:11,680
There is a fee involved.

67
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,160
Time and place, please.

68
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,100
Terraplane Blues, what year?

69
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,779
Terraplane Blues, 1928.

70
00:04:20,500 --> 00:04:21,540
Who was on the session?

71
00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:26,340
Okay, let me see. That'd be Robert
Johnson, Random Knowings, and

72
00:04:26,340 --> 00:04:30,320
Popcorn Ferguson on bass.

73
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:31,839
Very good.

74
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:33,580
Okay, okay. Keep them coming. Keep them
coming.

75
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,880
Come on, Alex. Enough already. We've
been at this for an hour.

76
00:04:37,100 --> 00:04:40,140
Jen, come on. It's important we be
knowledgeable here. Now, when Eddie

77
00:04:40,140 --> 00:04:43,160
walks in that door, we got to show him
we know a lot about the blues.

78
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,600
Alex, having you as a brother is all I
need to know about the blues.

79
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,540
All right, Alex.

80
00:04:49,820 --> 00:04:53,020
Here's all our old college stuff.
Whatever old blues albums we have would

81
00:04:53,020 --> 00:04:54,320
here. Thanks, Dan. This is great.

82
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,620
Oh, look at this old term paper.

83
00:04:57,300 --> 00:04:59,980
Flower power, an alternative to
hydroelectric power.

84
00:05:01,610 --> 00:05:04,490
I remember that. That was the project to
see if we could like the city of

85
00:05:04,490 --> 00:05:06,870
Berkeley exclusively through geranium
friction.

86
00:05:08,470 --> 00:05:09,470
How'd that turn out?

87
00:05:10,690 --> 00:05:12,230
At best, it's a backup.

88
00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:14,670
I guess no Eddie Dupree album.

89
00:05:14,910 --> 00:05:16,850
Eddie Dupree at the Monterey Blues
Festival.

90
00:05:18,150 --> 00:05:22,650
Perhaps the highlight of the festival
was Dupree's classic rendition of Keys

91
00:05:22,650 --> 00:05:27,010
the Highway, in which he showed why many
consider him to be the king of the

92
00:05:27,010 --> 00:05:28,010
Delta Blues.

93
00:05:28,490 --> 00:05:31,710
It's hard to believe that such a great
musician could just disappear from the

94
00:05:31,710 --> 00:05:32,509
music scene.

95
00:05:32,510 --> 00:05:36,190
None of these guys own the publishing
rights to their song. They'd come in,

96
00:05:36,190 --> 00:05:40,010
a record, get some lunch if they were
lucky. Maybe 50 bucks for the day.

97
00:05:40,470 --> 00:05:41,510
Somebody else got rich.

98
00:05:42,650 --> 00:05:44,990
What about the videos? Didn't they own
the rights to those?

99
00:05:52,230 --> 00:05:53,230
Mel.

100
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:57,820
Mel, this is before videos.

101
00:05:58,620 --> 00:06:01,260
Before videos? Then what'd they show on
MTV?

102
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,400
The same thing that's in your head, Mel.

103
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:10,520
What's this?

104
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,220
Going to Berkeley Blues.

105
00:06:12,860 --> 00:06:14,320
Living in Berkeley Blues.

106
00:06:15,180 --> 00:06:18,920
Leaving Berkeley Blues. That's the
Berkeley Blues trilogy.

107
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:22,640
I wrote this.

108
00:06:23,380 --> 00:06:25,900
Lisa and I would perform in the local
coffee houses.

109
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,680
Yeah, and seeing as Eddie Dupree is
coming tonight, we thought maybe we'd

110
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,440
a little show. Oh, no, no, no, no. No,
Mom.

111
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,480
No, no, don't you even think about it. I
think Mr.

112
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,880
Dupree might enjoy hearing it.

113
00:06:36,100 --> 00:06:37,100
Shh.

114
00:06:39,540 --> 00:06:41,000
Gone to Berkeley.

115
00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:44,820
Gone to Berkeley.

116
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,360
Gone to Berkeley.

117
00:06:58,159 --> 00:07:00,520
Now. You wrote that all by yourself,
Dad?

118
00:07:02,540 --> 00:07:04,420
I got it, I got it, I got it, I got it.

119
00:07:06,620 --> 00:07:08,260
Hello, I'm Eddie Dupree.

120
00:07:08,940 --> 00:07:12,620
Hi, I'm Alex Keaton. I'm Alex Keaton.
Please come in. Can I take your coat?

121
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:19,040
Mr. Dupree, I can't tell you how
meaningful it is to meet you after...

122
00:07:19,420 --> 00:07:23,960
All these years, we are truly two of
your biggest fans.

123
00:07:24,300 --> 00:07:26,280
Wonderful of you to say that. But who
are you?

124
00:07:27,700 --> 00:07:31,260
This is my father, Stephen Keaton. This
is my mother, Elise Keaton. Please come

125
00:07:31,260 --> 00:07:33,280
in. This is my girlfriend, Lauren
Miller.

126
00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:34,860
My sisters, Mallory and Jennifer.

127
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:38,200
Mr. Dupree, there's something I don't
understand.

128
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,340
That's the standard opening to any
remark she's likely to make.

129
00:07:43,900 --> 00:07:48,300
No, it's about these blues you keep
referring to. What exactly are you blue

130
00:07:48,300 --> 00:07:49,300
about?

131
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,160
Little lady, personally, I'm not blue
about anything.

132
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,500
These blues are like a pain.

133
00:07:56,660 --> 00:07:59,360
Pain that a man has when his woman
leaves him.

134
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,720
Yeah, that's blues, all right.

135
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:05,280
Thank you, Lead Belly Keating.

136
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,600
Mr. Dupree, listen, I thought maybe when
you came on the show, what I'd like to

137
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,720
do is talk a little bit about your
roots, where you come from.

138
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,600
Do you remember what your first paying
job was?

139
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,540
I was 12 years old down in Statesboro,
Georgia, where I was living at when the

140
00:08:22,540 --> 00:08:27,660
Fails Medicine Show come through the
town, selling some medicine out of a

141
00:08:27,660 --> 00:08:31,240
that said it was good for rheumatic
pains, pneumonia, anything that ails

142
00:08:32,299 --> 00:08:37,059
And they had a little show that drove
the crowd around, and they hired me for

143
00:08:37,059 --> 00:08:40,140
five cents a day and all the medicine I
could use.

144
00:08:42,179 --> 00:08:44,300
I sing a little song with a guitar.

145
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:45,980
I'll show you how I do it.

146
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:48,380
I want something like this.

147
00:09:18,350 --> 00:09:23,550
Did you ever hear the blues?

148
00:09:38,190 --> 00:09:40,230
Edie Dupree, it just struck me.

149
00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:43,990
We can't just do one night. We have an
Edie Dupree festival.

150
00:09:44,450 --> 00:09:48,530
Four nights of interviews, and then on
the fifth night, You perform live. Slow

151
00:09:48,530 --> 00:09:49,509
down.

152
00:09:49,510 --> 00:09:50,930
Just one interview.

153
00:09:51,310 --> 00:09:52,310
That's it.

154
00:09:52,810 --> 00:09:54,090
But, Eddie, Mr.

155
00:09:54,330 --> 00:09:58,350
Dupree, it's just that, you know, I
think this is a chance for you to get

156
00:09:58,350 --> 00:09:59,350
to doing what you love.

157
00:09:59,470 --> 00:10:00,570
You don't understand.

158
00:10:02,430 --> 00:10:04,130
I talk on your show.

159
00:10:04,630 --> 00:10:09,650
I'll answer your questions. But Eddie
Dupree will not sing in public anymore.

160
00:10:15,500 --> 00:10:16,520
Yes, yes, yes.

161
00:10:17,180 --> 00:10:21,640
That was Blind... That was Blind Lemon.

162
00:10:21,860 --> 00:10:23,000
That was Blind Lemon Jefferson.

163
00:10:23,740 --> 00:10:27,660
Thinking, going to the country. Which
was recorded in Mobile, Alabama, April

164
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:34,520
17th, 1936. Now, also on that date,
April 17th, 1936, Xerox was first

165
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:35,680
offered over the counter.

166
00:10:37,700 --> 00:10:39,380
That's $20 a share.

167
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,040
And hey, don't it give you the blues to
know you didn't get in at that price.

168
00:10:45,470 --> 00:10:52,350
Okay, it's 834 here on WLEL 87 .2 on
your FM dial. I'm Alex Keaton. He's so

169
00:10:52,350 --> 00:10:53,350
cute!

170
00:10:55,090 --> 00:10:57,690
Your blues man and stock analyst for the
night.

171
00:10:58,130 --> 00:11:03,310
I want to remind you that the legendary
blues guitarist, Eddie Dupree, will be

172
00:11:03,310 --> 00:11:06,830
joining us right here in the studio.
Now, I know I said he was dead.

173
00:11:08,910 --> 00:11:10,110
But I was dead wrong.

174
00:11:13,660 --> 00:11:17,400
Okay, now, here is Eddie Dupree singing
one of his favorites, John Henry.

175
00:11:21,780 --> 00:11:22,780
Hey,

176
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,260
Eddie, you're here.

177
00:11:25,540 --> 00:11:29,080
Great. You didn't think I was going to
show up? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

178
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,120
Please, sit down.

179
00:11:30,620 --> 00:11:31,900
Whoa, okay, great.

180
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,440
Uh, listen, can I get you something to
drink? Black coffee, dude.

181
00:11:34,660 --> 00:11:35,940
Black coffee? Black coffee.

182
00:11:36,690 --> 00:11:37,690
beverage of the blues.

183
00:11:38,770 --> 00:11:40,430
That ain't a heck of a tune, too, huh?

184
00:11:40,670 --> 00:11:43,890
Mama get mad when Papa don't bring... If
you go on a thing, I'm gonna leave.

185
00:11:45,950 --> 00:11:50,110
Well, Eddie, normally I get a lot of
requests for my fine vocal stylings, but

186
00:11:50,110 --> 00:11:51,830
tonight is your night.

187
00:11:52,950 --> 00:11:53,950
Don't worry.

188
00:11:54,710 --> 00:12:01,310
Okay. All right, all right. Joining me
now in the studio

189
00:12:01,310 --> 00:12:03,590
is The Blues Great.

190
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:08,020
Eddie Dupree. So if you have any
questions for Mr. Dupree, call us here

191
00:12:08,020 --> 00:12:09,020
-W -L -E -L.

192
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,940
And why don't I get it started?

193
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,980
Eddie, can you tell us a little bit
about the kind of music you make?

194
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,420
Music is not to be talked about. It's
like talking to somebody about making

195
00:12:19,420 --> 00:12:21,500
love. You don't talk about it, you just
do it.

196
00:12:25,820 --> 00:12:26,820
All right, okay.

197
00:12:29,540 --> 00:12:30,540
It's going well.

198
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:33,780
Hello, WLAL, you're on the air.

199
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,680
Mr. Dupree, I'm Professor Webster from
the music department here at Leland, and

200
00:12:38,680 --> 00:12:39,940
I'm a very big fan of yours.

201
00:12:40,500 --> 00:12:41,500
Thanks, I love you.

202
00:12:43,260 --> 00:12:46,820
I've been trying to track you down
forever. I'm staging a blues show at the

203
00:12:46,820 --> 00:12:49,360
Note Cafe, and I really want you to be a
part of it.

204
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,260
Thank you, but I'm not interested.

205
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,300
Hey, uh, Eddie, you know, that's a big
chance.

206
00:12:55,820 --> 00:12:57,660
Didn't I tell you I wasn't going to
perform anymore?

207
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,400
Well, I'm very disappointed.

208
00:13:01,420 --> 00:13:04,540
Because in my mind, you're the greatest
blues man to ever hold a guitar.

209
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,300
Well, goodbye.

210
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,280
You know, I have to agree with Professor
Webster.

211
00:13:11,500 --> 00:13:12,500
I mean, Mr.

212
00:13:12,620 --> 00:13:15,080
Dupree, it just seems to me that it's a
big opportunity. I don't see why you

213
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,079
wouldn't grab it.

214
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,280
People don't want to hear a bus driver
playing the blues.

215
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,480
Okay, well, we're going to play a song
now that Mr. Dupree recorded in 1943.

216
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,660
It's called Cornbread and Peas.

217
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:39,660
I don't want no cornbread and peas and
black molasses.

218
00:13:40,380 --> 00:13:46,180
I don't want no cornbread and peas and
black molasses. It's been a long time

219
00:13:46,180 --> 00:13:47,180
since I heard that.

220
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:53,200
I made that out in Chicago in O .K.'s
studio. It was so cold when I made that

221
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,240
record, my fingers froze to the core.

222
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,140
Listen, that's Lightning Fats on a
rhythm guitar.

223
00:14:02,220 --> 00:14:03,560
That's a little Willie on the bay.

224
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:05,320
Well,

225
00:14:09,180 --> 00:14:16,000
they don't make music like that anymore,

226
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:17,040
do they, ladies and gentlemen?

227
00:14:18,900 --> 00:14:20,700
Hi, W -L -E -L, Alex Keaton.

228
00:14:20,980 --> 00:14:22,040
He's so cute!

229
00:14:32,030 --> 00:14:33,910
I'd like to say something to Mr. Dupree.

230
00:14:34,570 --> 00:14:38,910
I just want to say that I would walk 15
miles in the snow to hear you play.

231
00:14:39,410 --> 00:14:40,670
20 miles in good weather.

232
00:14:41,830 --> 00:14:43,710
So I got to disappoint you like that.

233
00:14:44,530 --> 00:14:48,510
W -L -E -L, you're on the air. This is
Bill from Alpha Lambda Phi, and our

234
00:14:48,510 --> 00:14:49,750
fraternity is hoping you'll play.

235
00:14:50,370 --> 00:14:52,730
And if not, we're wondering if Lauren is
still available.

236
00:14:58,010 --> 00:14:59,010
You're off the air.

237
00:15:00,230 --> 00:15:01,230
Oh, you're on the air.

238
00:15:10,750 --> 00:15:11,750
Well,

239
00:15:12,590 --> 00:15:16,370
Mr. Dupree, looks like a lot of people
would rather see you play the blues than

240
00:15:16,370 --> 00:15:17,370
drive a bus.

241
00:15:21,070 --> 00:15:22,070
So good!

242
00:15:23,030 --> 00:15:24,030
Baby!

243
00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:25,290
So good!

244
00:15:25,390 --> 00:15:28,490
I don't mean maybe. You make me feel so
good.

245
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,980
So good, so good, so good.

246
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,360
Well, I feel so good.

247
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,600
Feel like falling asleep.

248
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:38,880
Hey!

249
00:15:39,300 --> 00:15:40,300
So good.

250
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,300
Hey, hey, hey. All right, Andy. Okay,
buddy.

251
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,580
Whatever I sing, you sing, okay?

252
00:15:47,420 --> 00:15:48,420
Baby,

253
00:15:48,940 --> 00:15:50,020
please don't go.

254
00:15:50,300 --> 00:15:51,960
Baby, please don't go.

255
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:53,620
Baby, please don't go.

256
00:15:53,820 --> 00:15:55,420
Baby, please don't go.

257
00:15:56,420 --> 00:16:02,680
Baby, please don't go down to New
Orleans. Baby, please don't go down to

258
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,120
Orleans. Because I love you so.

259
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,100
Because I love you so. Baby, please
don't go.

260
00:16:09,980 --> 00:16:13,100
You are a natural born booze man, Andy.
You are too, bro.

261
00:16:15,060 --> 00:16:16,060
Very good.

262
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,980
Very good indeed. I had no idea we had
two such down -home funky hep cats in

263
00:16:20,980 --> 00:16:21,980
Keaton family.

264
00:16:22,100 --> 00:16:24,120
You're right, Dad. We're cool.

265
00:16:26,670 --> 00:16:31,270
Professor Webster? In my view, your pawn
shop blues has overtones of the Aeolian

266
00:16:31,270 --> 00:16:34,350
cadences in Mahler's Das Lied von der
Erde.

267
00:16:34,970 --> 00:16:36,190
That's the way I think, too.

268
00:16:37,310 --> 00:16:41,670
You see, Mr. Dupree, you are the
absolute epitome of the American spirit.

269
00:16:42,250 --> 00:16:44,590
Professor Webster, you're going to get
on my nerves.

270
00:16:45,070 --> 00:16:47,430
Mr. Dupree, you're a living legend. Mr.

271
00:16:47,650 --> 00:16:49,410
Dupree, you're a daddy to the blues. Mr.

272
00:16:49,650 --> 00:16:50,910
Dupree, you're a national treasure.

273
00:16:51,650 --> 00:16:52,930
You caused all this.

274
00:16:53,770 --> 00:16:54,850
Yeah, I'm proud of that.

275
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,800
I just happen to believe that the blues
of Eddie Dupree are every bit as

276
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,580
important a contribution to American
culture as Huckleberry Finn.

277
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,700
Why don't you go find Huckleberry Finn
and hassle him, too?

278
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:12,040
Hi. Hi, girls. Hi. Hi, Mr. Dupree. We
just wanted to let you know that over

279
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:17,280
past few days, we've really become big
blues fans. Yeah, so we made this for

280
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,740
you. Thank you. What is it? Oh, it's a
scarf with all the shades of blue in it,

281
00:17:21,780 --> 00:17:22,780
like the blues.

282
00:17:23,130 --> 00:17:25,630
Do you know your girls are becoming
sweethearts of the blues?

283
00:17:25,890 --> 00:17:26,809
Yeah.

284
00:17:26,810 --> 00:17:29,270
All right, we'll see you later. Have a
good show. Thank you, buddy.

285
00:17:29,650 --> 00:17:33,630
Have a good one. All right, so, nervous?

286
00:17:34,610 --> 00:17:36,670
I've got the two coldest feet in
history.

287
00:17:37,290 --> 00:17:39,910
The last time I played before the Oscars
was 1965.

288
00:17:40,710 --> 00:17:41,750
You wasn't born then.

289
00:17:42,450 --> 00:17:44,170
And I don't know what Xerox was selling.

290
00:17:45,190 --> 00:17:47,630
I got a good note and just jumped right
out that door.

291
00:17:47,970 --> 00:17:51,730
Eddie, listen to me. If you don't sing
tonight, I will.

292
00:17:53,179 --> 00:17:54,320
Eating you fried dirty.

293
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,700
Good evening. We have a very special
treat for you tonight. A legendary blues

294
00:18:01,700 --> 00:18:04,860
artist. We haven't heard nearly enough
of him in a long, long time.

295
00:18:05,420 --> 00:18:06,780
He's come a long way to be here tonight.

296
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,020
Listen, there's nothing I can say about
this guy.

297
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,640
That he can't say himself with his
music. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Eddie

298
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:15,640
Dupree.

299
00:18:25,420 --> 00:18:27,420
Guess I'm supposed to play you some
blues.

300
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:29,280
So here I go.

301
00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:40,640
Well, I'm tired of running around.

302
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:45,220
Think I'll get married and settle down.

303
00:18:46,540 --> 00:18:50,480
This old sporting life, it is a mean
life.

304
00:18:51,100 --> 00:18:52,420
And it's killing me.

305
00:18:53,500 --> 00:18:54,500
Yes, it is.

306
00:18:55,590 --> 00:18:59,230
I got a letter from my home.

307
00:19:00,310 --> 00:19:04,110
All my schoolmates, they are dead and
gone.

308
00:19:04,770 --> 00:19:06,230
It'll make you worry.

309
00:19:07,130 --> 00:19:10,950
It'll make you wonder about days to
come.

310
00:19:13,290 --> 00:19:15,870
Next song is for a special friend of
mine.

311
00:19:17,370 --> 00:19:18,870
Lose your money.

312
00:19:19,250 --> 00:19:22,210
Please don't you lose your mind.

313
00:19:22,730 --> 00:19:24,650
Don't you lose your mind.

314
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:30,320
If you lose your money, please don't
lose your mind.

315
00:19:33,260 --> 00:19:39,080
Well, if you lose your woman, please,
please don't fool with mine.

316
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,800
Let it come rain, come sunshine.

317
00:19:45,540 --> 00:19:49,020
From the skies, from the skies above.

318
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:50,940
Blue, blue skies.

319
00:19:51,140 --> 00:19:53,780
Let it come rain, come sunshine.

320
00:19:54,810 --> 00:20:00,370
From the sky, lonely skies above, blue,
blue skies above.

321
00:20:00,850 --> 00:20:06,750
You know I'm a fool. I'm a fool about
the woman I love. Yes, I am.

322
00:20:09,010 --> 00:20:10,110
Walk on.

323
00:20:10,630 --> 00:20:11,950
Walk on.

324
00:20:12,490 --> 00:20:14,090
Walk on.

325
00:20:14,330 --> 00:20:15,590
Walk on.

326
00:20:16,090 --> 00:20:17,530
Walk on.

327
00:20:18,190 --> 00:20:19,550
Walk on.

328
00:20:19,990 --> 00:20:21,310
Walk on.

329
00:20:22,030 --> 00:20:23,030
Walk on.

330
00:20:23,870 --> 00:20:28,670
People, I'm going to keep on walking
until I find my way back home.

331
00:20:29,170 --> 00:20:30,450
Tell me something.

332
00:20:31,410 --> 00:20:35,070
My mind gets worried when my shoes get
thin.

333
00:20:35,510 --> 00:20:40,410
Don't know where I'm going, but I do
know where I've been. I'm going to walk

334
00:20:40,450 --> 00:20:41,930
walk on.

335
00:20:42,530 --> 00:20:45,530
I'm going to walk on and on and on and
on and on and on.

336
00:20:46,550 --> 00:20:52,330
I'm going to keep on walking until I
find my way back home. Let me tell you

337
00:20:52,330 --> 00:20:53,330
something.

338
00:20:56,250 --> 00:20:58,370
I've got to be on my way.

339
00:20:58,650 --> 00:21:02,090
I'm going to leave tomorrow, but I'm
coming back someday.

340
00:21:02,310 --> 00:21:03,550
I've got to walk on.

341
00:21:04,250 --> 00:21:05,250
Walk on.

342
00:21:06,250 --> 00:21:09,150
Walk on. On and on and on and on.

343
00:21:09,970 --> 00:21:15,110
I'm going to keep on walking till I find
my way back home.

344
00:21:15,890 --> 00:21:22,590
I'm going to keep on walking till I find
my way back home. Hey, hey, hey.

345
00:21:23,050 --> 00:21:24,050
Walk on.

346
00:22:01,710 --> 00:22:02,770
Sit, Ubu, sit.

347
00:22:03,210 --> 00:22:04,210
Good dog.
