Rubin "Rube" Lacey (January 2, 1901 – 1972) 


   The man who influenced Son House and many others, Mr. Rubin Lacey, was a main figure in the early days of the Blues. He gave up music to become a Pastor a couple years into his career; thank you for your contribution Mr. Lacey, you are appreciated. Please take a listen here and have an enjoyable Monday:  Mississippi jail house groan
