GUEST,DrWord Review: Book on Big Bill Broonzy (20) RE: Review: Book on Big Bill Broonzy 27 Jun 11


O.K. then. Blame it on old age {?} but I can't have seen Broonzy @ the 4D. Spent some awesome time listening on the youtubes. He certainly was a guitar genius!!!

any 'catters remember the 4D, next to the Pembina Drive-in near University of Manitoba? Since BBB apparently died in '58, it was someone else I saw performing there. Hmmmm. I know for certain it was there, early sixties, that I heard Joni Mitchell, and Terry & McGee, and the guitarist I characterized as "huge" in my previous post.

I won't, as a latter-day Luddite, peek and poke the Internet for an answer, but this forum never ceases to amaze.

xcuse the thread creep. I'll be having more middle-age moments I'm sure. Despite my faulty recall, I hugely enjoyed the 'tubes of Broonzy.

keep on pickin'
