  1. Sorry to hear this news. Saw where he was hospitalized a few days ago. Didn't realize how serious his condition was.

    Had breakfast with Magic Slim back in 2010. He still had the magic but he wasn't too slim. Saw him last August @ Hot August Blues over at Oregon Ridge in Baltimore County. He really cranked it out that day.

    RIP Slim.
