Robert Johnson said something like, "I'm goin' back to California, to my Sweet Home Chicago."
It's the thought that counts.

Given that the devil is an Englishman, that all makes perfect sense!

Mr. Scratch is an English pop star. (surprised = none)

Hey.
Was it a Invalid Link Removed when Sharon Stone got blocked recently by a popular dating website? My basic instinct would be to say 'Probably no. No mistake.'
Can't quite fathom why. Bit vague. I have a feeling. Total recall's not my strong suit. But she does remind me of someone shady, from way back, does Sharon Stone. …
He started out singing for a band...likely had to learn to work with them.Frank knew how to sing WITH a band whereas others tried to sing OVER the top of a band. He was one of a kind.
Stone the crows! She is.She's young.
Kick and snare are never where you would expect them to be in a rock beat.And every so often, a bomb from the kick drum on the a-and-uh of 3. And you're like![]()
Yep. I don't mean to imply he's not a good drummer. As I said, he has chops for days. but the chops he has really work in a specific context. I never really knew how true this was about drummers in general before I knew him.Sounds like someone I'd love playing with. As I've mentioned before, playing with most rock drummers in my Americana/bluegrass jams is pretty sucktastic from my perspective (and worse yet playing jazz), and I greatly prefer playing with no drummer at all in those situations. But I've been lucky enough to work a lot with a few guys who can just flip a switch when a different style and feel is needed, thankfully.
This is kinda bluesy, eh?
