Story by: Gail Nobles 'Now whoever said a man was hard to find Positively absolutely sure was lying Cause I just found the best man that ever was And here's just a few things that he does He shakes my ashes Greases my grittle' Hello, I’m Gail Nobles. Welcome to Podcast and Blues. Today’s topic is Alberta Hunter. The words that you have heard me say from the beginning comes from Alberta’s track My Handyman Ain't Handy Man No More. She's singing about how her man takes care of her household chores and fixes things. He does everything for her, but the title of the song is saying that the man is not handy no more. So in the title it sounds as if Alberta is saying that he is no longer able to do all those things he has done. But in the song, there is no frustration or disappointment having someone to rely on. So she could also be saying that he's more to her than a handyman. Alberta Hunter was a jazz and blues singer and songwriter from the early 1920s to the late 1950s. After twenty years of working as a nurse, Hunter resumed her singing career in 1977. She lived to get 89 years old...…
