This may sound like a cliche but sometimes I find myself in a place where I can only listen to blues. It's not a genre I'd know much about yet but there's something about it I think is more comforting than drinking hot chocolate under a warm blanket.
Lately I've been indulging myself with a dose of Louisiana blues - love the way it's so laid-back, slow and dark. Especially two Lightnin's, namely Lightnin' Slim and Lightnin' Hopkins, have a sound that's simply captivating. You'll know things aren't that bad when you hear Slim sing: "If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all..."
