Is there anyone else out there playing blues on a Puerto-Rican cuatro? I use it quite a bit as an alternative to mandolin or tiple, it works great for Henry Thomas and Blind Willie McTell stuff.

Hurt would introduce 'Coffee Blues' by declaring that his favorite coffee was Maxwell House because it was 'good till the last drop.' This is the kind of song that comes with a wink and a nudge. At the Gaslight, the mug Hurt would bring to the stage was not filled with coffee, but with a spot of whiskey. - John Milward, notes from Mississippi John Hurt, The Complete Studio Recordings
