Re: Blues Friday New Page

Jim than k you for your comments. I guess if your name was  Dion Francis DiMucci   is easy to know why he goes by  Dion  and ever since I listened to him sing blues  I knew I would  post him.

Re: Blues Friday New Page

LOL Sorry man - I listened to her and forgot to reply.  I liked her a lot. Her voice is quite unique.  I kept waiting for her to do a duet with Dean Martin.
I liked Before the night is through - it had a resemblance to Under the Boardwalk.
The song I liked the best was How Many Times !   very passionate in her voice - really could feel the blues.

I appreciate the work you do finding these artists and songs.

I wish others would compensate your efforts with some responses !!

Thanks again

Re: Blues Friday New Page

CG he is real good so is his band. First time I have heard of him and I have enjoyed it very much. It is a cold winter Saturday night down here in the South Pacific and your post has helped to make an entertaining night. Wishing you folk in the USA a safe and enjoyable July Fourth weekend.     

Re: Blues Friday New Page

Peatle Jville thank  you and is is good to know you look at the blues page.  We did had a good and quiet  July Fourth week end.  We are mostly staying at home with the coronavirus it still  seems like the best place to stay. If we go out to the grocery store it is masks and gloves. In fact most all the stores have sign out saying mask are required. No mask NO service on all local stores.

Re: Blues Friday New Page

I don't know how you do it - another fantastic find. I really loved these songs.
Talk about bringing music from where you live - she is so into every song.

I really loved the Gypsy song... set up on the back porch -  the electric multi-plug hanging, the box guitar with the license plate - etc....  :)It was fun to just look at the place while listening to her perform.
She really is n excellent talent.  I'm still trying to figure out how sghe got from Belgium to the Bayou and Mississippi ??? smile

Her smile is contagious - and her guitar playing is exceptional.

Thanks again for a great start to the weekend.  Superb find!

Re: Blues Friday New Page

She is from Belgium and later moved to to the US so some of the songs are from Belgium and some from and Mississippi where she lives now and where she cut some CD's.

And Jim thank you for your comments. I usually pick the one or more and usually pick  the one I think is best or at least have the most talent.

Good stuff CG

"Too old to die young" and "Country comes to town" were the best ones for me.
I liked the resonator guitar and of course the muscle car in the video. smile

There's some good stuff coming out of the bayou - and you seem to be able to find them !! smile

Thanks CG for your efforts.

Re: Blues Friday New Page

She has a very close resemblance to   Janis Joplin !

Excellent vocals - lots of passion.  Her voice in Wild and Free ( which ironically,  was my favorite on the list)  was so much different than all the others.

A very good way to start off the weekend.

Thanks CG  !
Have a great weekend!
