    Ok, I give. I have watched it 3 times and looked at the background, but, am not noticing whatever it is I’m supposed to be noticing, or at least, not recognizing.

    How about a clue, Ash!

    I did notice “in your time” were part of the lyrics of Stranger Blues, and that there were a lot of woooos, and some great harmonica playing – I did enjoy the clip, even if I can’t figure out the puzzle. :)

    Okay, I give. Looks like Condi Rice at the beginning, maybe Aretha? Caught some guys in some sharp suits but don’t recognize them. Either way I enjoyed the video, loved the harp. My daddy used to have a mustache like that, was this from the 60’s?

    Is that Koko Taylor off to the side? And they made fun of Taylor’s whooping….
