What are you listening to right now?

Rosemary,

If there was a song it could just have well have been Yo Ho Ho And A Bottle of Rhum Vanille. And a cigar.
 
I can't post original and stage charts. I respect the rules. Here's a good one.

yep...Sherry is where it all started for them..followed by Big Girls Dont Cry....and they never looked back from there
 
I always trust your judgement and analysis. Yep.

The old 1 - 6m - 2m -5(7th) progression. Also known, years ago, as "We want cantor." I don't know why it was named that "back in the days." I still use that book from 1952 to refresh my musical background.(And yes, those are my scribblings on the top lines as I was finding my way on the frets.)

Our roadtrip had me listening, and some playing, in Alabama and Texas. Yes, we diddled some country. But, it was back to roots with Little Walter (my knowledge was courtesy of Paul Butterfield some years ago) and T-Bone Walker (I actually got an 18th (by my count) version of "Stormy Monday" (with horns!) under my belt.)

I am rusty in the playing department. Folks were forgiving. Niiiiiice trip.
 
That must have been one of those super moments in life. Get your gumption up and get backstage and have an icon call you in by first name. Oh Yeah!

I never got to meet Bloomfield. I had some chats with Paul Butterfield (another too early R.I.P.) when Buzzy Feiten was doing lead guitar. PB was always so complimentary of MB, even though he was pissed that they parted and MB went on to other, bigger, things.

I am a huge fan of Butterfield's (and MB's) early stuff. I would've never discovered all those other blues influences that shaped much of music without Paul's chats.

It's a miracle nobody tripped and died stumbling over the cords. Crappy lifestyle and decisions cut short his life. IMHO. Still, a genius that should always be remembered.

As for Telecaster. As a young fool, I sold my first one. The Fender folks provided a custom one that I still pick up every few years. They did that knowing that my guitar chops are sub-average and my Jazz basses were what I really dug into. What a long strage trip it's been. No regrets.

Could I ever read anything all the way through? I am sorry. What were Paul's chats, please.


Just hangin' out. I can't remember all the words. Really. It was just music, Chicago memories - just chat stuff. Some friendly times with no hoopla. Just like being on SBH.
 
Yep. We did a road trip. No big rig. Small mini-van that the pup enjoyed.

I got my a*s kicked with some music folks in TX. Cool. Family does give good advice.

Here, I just plopped in "Six Days On The Road" by Taj Mahal. Great "reinterp" of a clasic road song.

I have all the original "Guitar Player" CDs via Rhino. Some great tunes. IMHO.

And yes, I'm ready for more miles on the road. I like it. Kathy says - Let's just do 250 miles to our closest hideout. Aw, what the heck, engine oil will only be warming up.

Other stuff on CD - Beck's Bolero, "Scratchy" by Travis Wommack, lots of Mayall and other gems.
 
GEEZ. Perfect day and wonderfull all around.

So, I plop in Chamber Brothers "Time."

Go figure. I can't.
 
I just printed the picture of the late great Michael Bloomfield and put it where we can see him. Thank you so much. "When I look out my window, what do you think I see...?"
