Re: friday's blues fix

Way out of sequence !!!  But having been to a local venue this last weekend reminded me of a big influence in my own musical journey.  So for those not familiar with this very familiar local (to me) artiste, may I introduce Terry Robb...

Re: friday's blues fix

Wow!!!!!!
That guy is fantastic - what a talent!
Talk about owning the neck of a guitar. 
I can see how you could be influenced by this man - he is awesome.
I could listen to that all day  - thank you for sharing Doug !

Re: friday's blues fix

Was just browsing some tunes on YT and thought my friends would enjoy this. This guitar player is good to the point of it being unfair to the rest of us.

Great tune, sir!

If one listens closely to the words about a third of the way through, you'll hear the singer make reference to "St.John The Conqueroo". Here's a treatise on what he means:

I also loved the small child playing the drums in the back - cute!

Re: friday's blues fix

Wow! How do you keep finding these great blues tunes, Mr. badeye??? I'm gonna have to Amazon this one. That album they mention in the comments section of the video needs to be in my cd blues collection. For next Friday, may I request an instrumental?

Thanks!

badeye I am enjoying the blues you put on here. I will attach some of our Kiwi musos giving American blues number a  whirl back in 1984.

Interesting playing, and he certainly uses the open tuning very well. He also looks like he could be defensive lineman on a pro football team ... big man.
