06 Dec 01 - 10:56 PM (#605430) Subject: RE: Hello Mudcat From: Memphis Slimfast Well I do like ribs. I've been to Memphis a few times, but I'm not really from there. My Mudcat name is kind of a tribute to one of my favorite blues singers. |

07 Dec 01 - 08:42 AM (#605623) Subject: RE: Hello Mudcat From: Fortunato Welcome Mr. Slim. "Every Day I have the Blues"; "Steady Rolling Blues"; great stuff. Are you a piano player like your man, Chatman? I never saw Memphis Slim. Now I did know slightly a relative of his, Sam Chatmon, sometimes of the Mississippi Sheiks, and got to know him a bit at the National Folk Festival back in the mid-seventies. Little bitty man with a long beard. Loud singer, though, for his size. Had a fondness for Jack Daniels and women as I remember. We got along fine. See, until I saw Sam I thought "Sittin' on Top of the World" was a bluegrass, Bill Monroe song! I am occasionally wrong. ANYway welcome to the 'cat. Theres hundreds of years of accumulated musical knowledge floating around here. You can't spit without hitting a jackleg ethnomusicologist or proctologist (sorry 'spaw). Regards, Fortunato |

07 Dec 01 - 10:13 AM (#605688) Subject: RE: Hello Mudcat From: Memphis Slimfast Fortunato, I hack around a bit on the piano, but I'm really a guitarist. There is some dispute as to whether Sam Chatman and Memphis Slim (Peter Chatman) were actually related. When asked, Memphis Slim said they were not. I met Sam a few times at folk festivals in the late-60s or early-70s. I met Memphis Slim a few times too. Slim |

07 Dec 01 - 01:22 PM (#605806) Subject: RE: Hello Mudcat From: GUEST,Gusty Now you've got GUEST trying to screw up welcome threads for your new members, making them a less positive experience than they would otherwise be. I'm not for utter censorship or exclusion of non-member posts, and I ain't no computer geek (and I don't use that term in a derogatory way), so excuse me if this is a stupid question. Is there any way to prevent non-members from posting to specific threads, such as this one, where the atmosphere should be friendly and pleasant? |
