Yesterday morning I received an email from Bobert...he was playing at the Gaston Public Library at 2pm...might I be able to get there? The Library is roughly a forty minute drive from where I'm currently staying, so a quick call to Uber sorted out the travel arrangements. Not only did I meet Bobert & his lovely wife, I was also treated to an hour of The Blues, played & sung with passion & conviction...punctuated by stories, history & adlibs that kept smiles on all our faces...a meeting & a performance that will live in my memory for a long, long time...my first face to face with a Catter. I shared this experience with Janie first before posting here. A musically uplifted Nigel...much love to all xxxxx
