High Heeled Blues is a blues album by the American guitarist and singer Rory Block. Produced by John Sebastian and released in 1981 through Rounder Records, it included a number of tracks that took Block back to the classical blues form with which she began her career – including three compositions by Robert Johnson, one by Skip James, and a number first popularized by Bessie Smith ("Down in the Dumps"). Other songs move in a more modern direction, incorporating elements of pop, country, and gospel.
