I was away when this thread slowed down. I heard a good blues song (the title will have to come to me later) sung and played by a fellow on guitar, with his wife backing him on, of all things, a muted hammer dulcimer. You know, it sounded good.

Another thread reminded me I enjoyed hearing Hans Theesink playing his blues http://www.theessink.com/en/ several years ago when I was a docent at the Edinburgh International Folk Festival. If you click the link, then "audio" from the left hand menu, you can have a listen.

Thanks for a long and interesting thread, Bobert and all. I expect we'll see it come to life again as others find something to add to the discussion.
