Blues Power

[vournikas]

After initial lessons from my step-brother, I moved away from Spanish classical guitar to playing Chicago Blues. After 20-odd years of fannying around with other genres, I've migrated back to it and with the internet I find that my blues playing keeps getting better and better.

Of course, this leads to 'tube searches for little nuggets of blues gold. Of which, I think, this is one :-

Stevie Ray Vaughan jams with Albert King

And this :

BB King plays live with T-Bone Walker

Both cases of pupil and teacher reunited.

Deeply soulful :

Robert Johnson - Love In Vain

Raw :

Rory Gallagher - Sugar Mama

Stadium :

Led Zep - Since I Been Lovin' You

Gotta love the blues

I did indeed enjoy that!

I know what you're saying WRT Peter Green's 'Mac : Need Your Love So Bad is - currently - the only blues guitar vid of me playing I've posted up to the 'tube.

Looking for that BB King / Gary Moore thing, I found this :

Wow.

Here's someone who could have a great blues future. I first heard about him when he was mentioned in a CAR magazine feature last year for a road trip from New Orleans to Chicago :

Christone "Kingfish" Ingram

He'll be about 17 y.o. now, I suspect. A big talent. Too big to be healthy in other ways........
