1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 In this emotional Flashback Friday episode of&amp;nbsp;The Radio Vagabond, I travel to Bessemer, Alabama to experience Gip’s Place &amp;nbsp;– &amp;nbsp;a legendary juke joint founded in the backyard of Henry “Gip” Gipson. At the time, Gip was an astonishing 97 years old, still hosting Saturday night blues sessions in his tin-roofed music shed alongside family, locals, and wandering musicians. His motto, “No black, no white, just blues,” resonated through every note. Update:&amp;nbsp;Sadly, Henry “Gip” Gipson passed away on October 8, 2019, at the age of 99, closing a chapter on one of America’s last authentic juke joints.
