Thread Name: And how long have you been playing?
Subject: RE: And how long have you been playing.....
Mooman: you're absolutely spot on about Blind Blake. It's not widely known that the queen, as well as being knowledgable, is actually a player. Not great, but competent. I well remember sessions at Buck House back in the 80's, when she used to turn in a very creditable Rope Stretchin' Blues on her old Harmony Sovereign. Charlie used to chime in with his Wurzels repertoire. and Philip always did the White Rose of Athens when he'd had a few. The atmosphere always got a bit frosty, though, when Lady Di insisting on doing every bloody Duran Duran song that she knew.
