You’ve made a mighty big ante there FRiend, and I could almost fold just based on the Frogman. What a marvel to see at age 82!

But I still have a trump card, so to speak, to play. Ladies and Gentlemen, let me introduce the Godmother of Rock and Roll, Sister Rosetta Tharpe:

Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018. She should have been in the first 10.

I'll see your Sister Rosetta Tharpe and raise you a B. B. King.

Let's see: Carolina, Azure, Navy, Cobalt, Duke, Cornflower, Teal, and True. Yep, it looks like I've got the blues again.
