John Garfield was a big movie star in the old school sense, and he died at the age of 39. Like the funerals of Rudolf Valentino and Princess Diana, the funeral was a big cultural event where people expressed huge sadness over an early death. So the late John Garfield Blues are the kind of blues that you feel in relation to something ending way too soon, leaving you with a sense that there could have been much more but now it has all ended suddenly and you are left alone.
