Why aint they no blues thread?

[Hopper]

Ya know, the kind where peoples just talk about straight-up blues music, and all, eh? Talkin for my own damn self, I loves the blues. Actually, I like BOTH kinds of music, rhythm AND blues.

Probably because this is a "Jazz" board...
preaching to the wrong choir sir.

Man I better while I still have the chance. I regret not seeing Gatemouth, Bo Diddly and some of the others that left us relatively recently.

Oh man those guys are having way too much fun there haha. Does me good to see James Brown too. I think some of those white guys were the house band- could be Ray's guys. Also present singing was Jerry Lee Lewis. Kinda looked like Chet for a minute tho.

That's a great cip, aint, but why the **** didn't someone give Ray or Fats a mic?

Yeah, Da Killa, eh, Square? He always called his own self that, and it kinda fits, too, seein as how about 3 of his ex-wives mysteriously drowned in his backyard swimmin pool, ya know?

Great question, Blood. Some producer really should autta have a cap busted in his sorry *** for that, doncha think?

 

[Hopper]

Then, again, when ya gots 2 upstagin showboats likes Da Killa and Little Richard on mikes, they really just aint no room for nobuddy else, I spoze.

 

[squareinthecircle]

Those guys can contribute with their keys I guess Jerry and Little Richard were only singing. But you're right Hopper I think even Jerry was lucky to get a chance with Little Richard there haha.

 

[Hopper]

Well, it's kinda hard to give the edge to either, I spect, but, looky here: Who, other than Jerry Lee, could possibly upstage the true king of rock, Chuck Berry, I ax ya?:

I love me some blues. Everytime I'm hanging out around the house I throw in the Essential BB King. Nothing quite like listening to 3 A.M. blues at 3 A.M. Muddy Watters is great, so is Hooker, and Mr. Crossroads himself Rob Johnson. I also dig Stevie Ray Vaughn.

I've got Howlin' Wolf going on my itunes right now. Men lies about that. Some others cries about that.
