Koko Taylor, Dead at 80Published June 3, 2009 @ 21:20 in Celebrity Death Watch
3 Responses to "Koko Taylor, Dead at 80"Mike from Lowville Koko Taylor was a legend singing the Blues not Jazz. She was a Chess Records alumni along with a slew of other. Great movie all about Chicago's Chess Records out now on video. I have her "I GOT WHAT IT TAKES" album, her first after Chess closed down. A thoughtful insight and ideas I will use on my blog. You've obviously spent some time on this. Well done!

Koko Taylor was 80. She was the Grammy-winning blues singer known as the "Queen of the Blues" who belted out her signature hit, "Wang Dang Doodle," at hundreds of concerts.

Great pipes.
I feel guilty for not knowing who she is.
But jazz usually isn't on my play list.
