Thanks; it's good to be back! Been a crazy several months. I've missed you all.
You're very welcome! Good to know you like him, too. He was one of the *greats*. I've been playing his albums all day long. There's nothing like listening to a bit of Wolf on a warm summer's day. Oooh... and great post! I love Cream's cover of Spoonful!
I got to see him a couple of times in the 70's! A friend if mine Harry Robbins aka, "The Blues Dink" had been stung in the ear by a bee when he was a kid so he couldn't listen to super loud music for too long and he loved the blues and it's lower volume suited his hearing. He exposed the rest of us to some great blues back then.
Hesitation BluesRev. Gary Davis - Hesitation BluesMy teacher, Ian Buchanan, taught Jorma Kaukonen fingerpicking Delta Blues in the early 60's when they were at Antioch College. This is from my lesson tapes...Hesitation Blues - Ian Buchanan 1972 If those two hadn't met, we would never have gotten this...Hot Tuna - Hesitation Blues - 1970
also... saw Jorma solo in Golden Gate Park in 79 or 80. Really good performance!
I never knew they had roos in France! Actually, I don't speak French so she could be singing about anything, but thanks to the Roomania around here I know that tune well.LOLAlice Dona Chante Moi Ta Chanson Jackhttp://www.dailymotion.com/video/xtq4lt_chante-moi-ta-chanson-jack_music#.UciMeo3D_IU
Dawsonville, GA has the largest Roo park outside of Australia! I was 2nd runner up to work there years ago. That's where I first saw a Kupibara.
