What blues are you listening to today?
Blues is by far my favorite and most listened to genre. I don't know how many of us are in here, but I thought a continuing thread of this kind might be of interest.
I'm listening to Buddy Guy's Sweet Tea. Buddy's covers of Junior Kimbrough, T-Model Ford, CeDell Davis and the like are awesome. Jimbo Mathus sitting in on rhythm guitar doesn't hurt!
So what blues are on your system today?
@howardlee -"Saying Zep is the blues is an interesting idea. Page would laugh his ass off at you." Page would likely not be laughing. Here he is on the subject: “The blues – I mean, it’s just undeniable. It was just an undeniable element of everything that was going on in Led Zeppelin." "Ultimately, I wanted Zeppelin to be a marriage of blues, hard rock and acoustic music, topped with heavy choruses-a combination that had never been done before. Lots of light and shade in the music." |
If any of you guys can attend the "Blues Masters At The Crossroads" in Salina in the fall, it's an INCREDIBLE time! You can meet and greet and party with all the artists and really couldn't find a more intimate and personal experience. Here's another artist I got to see and meet: Marquise Knox-"Man Child"

Haven’t seen anybody mention Shepherd. |
