At age 63, Bukka White has a new album out: Listen

August 30th, 1969: Bukka White has released his latest album, Memphis Hot Shots. White, (the first cousin of B.B.King), has had a resurgence in his career over the last few years. Following in the footsteps of Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters, he has decided now is the time to put out a record with a full backing band.

The album is a major departure for the 63-year-old, who has recorded only solo albums up until this point.

White's 1940 song "Fixin' to Die" was recorded by Bob Dylan on his 1962 debut album.
