Shine on you crazy diamond...tripping the light fantastic. The lights dimmed and clouds of trippy notes rolled towards us...ever so soft...ever so far away...tendrils of sweet sound heading our way. A guy with a guitar strolls onto the stage...hair over his eye ...twang...that single riff trickling down my spine. Another to a keyboard...finger reaching for a single riff...another to the drum...

The 'sound of music'
Nice coverage of the blues musical symphony, Dave. Another great blog after the last one I read from the Binkleys.I must admit its my learning curve in the beautiful world of the music that you nurture with passion.

Nicely penned comment Tab..."blues music symphony"...love it. Last night we saw 8 Ball Aitken and his withering swamp blues in a pub rock scenario. Reminded us why we love the blues...it grabs our souls and lifts and shakes it. The Binkleys would have LOVED it. I reckon you would have too, Tab. Super hard not to!

Wolf Mail passion
I got to see Wolf 3 times while in Australia and I have to say he is one of the most passionate musician I ever seen. Genuine, spontaneous and intense. The real thing!

Ah...warms the heart to receive your comment Annie. You can therefore imagine the thrill when Denise and I saw he had signed the wall at BB King's House of the Blues in Moscow!!! Wolf is a humble guy...but when he plays a storm the thunder and lightning from his guitar is unforgettable.
