The video for the song “When Koko Came To Town” by my good friend Chris Barnes premiered this week. I was so pleased and proud to see Chris and his team used many of my images of Koko Taylor and other Blues heroes like Otis Rush, Pinetop Perkins, and Lightnin’ Hopkins.
The tune was co-written by Tom Hambridge and is a fun tribute to the legendary Koko. It appears on Chris’ latest album BADNEWS RISING, available now.
