I ain't never done that song with a bass player that can lay on that Fat E string like that so my version is quite different but I sho nuff love that song...

"Cadillac Records" I have heard of but never seen... Seems that I just don't know very much about the history of the Chicago blues scene even tho I like alot of folks that came outta there and do some song from them players... I might have to rent up that Cadiallac Blues and check it out... I'd heard that there wasa dcoumentary on Chess Studios but I wouldn't have clue about it either...

BTW, I just got the new "Southern Living" magazine and there's a section in there about things ya' gotta know about livin' in the South and one of them is about Mississippi blues and they make mention of T Model Ford who is another one of the oldsters still playin'... I did get to meet him but just kinda in passin' a few years back... Wished I'd been able to sit down and listen to him play some...

Didn't realize that Little Walter (Jacobs) came outta Chess... Reckon I stoled one of his, too, "Blues With A Feeling" which I put on my CD... Love that song... Great to have a slow song that folks just can't push the beat to heavy with... I mean, some songs is supposed to be slow and that one is...

Harp Boy, fir anyone interested, is/was a great harp player 'round the DC area... His real name is Vince Farabaugh... He and I started playing together long time ago and I tagged him with "Harp Boy" and it has stuck... Problem is that Harp Boy has a rather protective wifie-poo who keeps him on a short leash these days so he don't get out to play very often but...

...one of the best, if not **the best**, harp players in the area... I took him to Blues Week one year for the Wednesday night "blues party" and jam and he was hangin' tough with the most of the instructors...

Miss him... But that's the blues, ain't it???
