Here’s one from my past. I did this one with one of the guys that was responsible for getting me back on stage after about 25 years.

 

Great song for an acoustic show…

I don’t know why this one crossed my mind.  It’s a ballad, a love song, and a really unique arrangement, all in one great piece!

During an interview with Bill Withers, the interviewer pointed out the "Ain't No Sunshine" was not proper use of the English language. He replied "I know, I know, I know, I know...."

Some West Coast Jump blues.  Most of the songs, like Don't Do It,  are humorous.  A great small venue act, for me they are always a must see when they come around.

My cover band used to open our shows with this number.  We spent hours of rehearsal time getting it right…

 


 

Some folks said we did it well.  I always hoped we did it justice!

 

The Brothers were better than we deserved.

Here’s some more Blues!!

 

We covered this one as well. Often used it to open our second set.  The guys played it really well, but my vocals could NEVER match Gregg’s!!

Some more Rhiannon Giddens and her most recent album.  Perhaps more so than earlier albums, this album moves her incredible voice to the front and instrumental skills back a little.

Claudia Lennear spent almost her entire career as a backup singer.  "Phew" from which this song is taken is her only album.   A very good album overall.

 

Claudia dated Mick Jagger and she is alleged to be the inspiration to the Rolling Stones song 'Brown Sugar".   'Not At All' is supposed to be her response, telling Mick that he could easily be replaced.

She had a lot of good and very experienced people who worked on this album:  https://www.allmusic.com/album/phew!-mw0000842041#credits

Love ta’ listen to this gal!  Not so fond of some of her politics, but the lady can belt out a tune…

Here’s the one I’m trying to learn right now…

I was just talking to one of the guys that played on this album.  Sadly, I believe that the rest of them have passed on. I went to school with two of them and another was a friend.
 

Great album! Great friends! Great Song! Great memories!
