And a Blues Monday to you
The looks-and answers-are priceless.Given the evidence I am about to present, should we invite Alex to join our little club?
Ahhh...back home from NAMM and enoying a cup of real coffee and a little peace and quiet. I was there for 3 1/2 days, took zero pictures, played all of four basses, and talked to 7,000 people...or so it seemed anyway. One of the TB photo bloggers and I hung out quite a bit and once he starts posting his pics I'll grab a few for the GOF crew. The show went really well for me this time because I am much more focused on people than gear, and there was no shortage of people there, around 120,000 this year I think.
Sounds like you had a good time.
Soon the din of the noise subsides, NAMM food passes, and the smell of hand sanitizer fades.
...Janis then Blues Monday to you C Jam Blues
Janis might have done Toe Jam Blues. It's not a belly button fluff song.
Different mix of styles there, can't quite pin it. Not Chicago blues and not St. Louis blues. Sort of rockabilly blues.
Thank goodness there's still SOMEONE out there who know you have to warm up your voice before a show if you want to not sound like thatSounds like me, getting my motor running first thing in the morning...
I hear a Little Walter Boom Boom Out Go The Lights influence. That big band sound that the Stray Cats wove into their rockabilly.
