That makes me Old Harp Rivers, a credible blues name.

This “blues name” thing has been making the rounds. According to it, my blues name is Buddy Eyes McGee. 
THIS IS ALL WRONG. Anyone who knows anything will tell you that your blues name is: An Affliction, A Fruit and a President. SO:
Blind Watermelon McKinley
Fat Apple Cleveland
Scurvy Lemon Washington
Dropsy “Figs” Monroe
Lumbago Plum Pierce
Et cetera. What’s yours?
