Here's the blues album I've been talking about: Ten original songs that spell the blues in my own peculiar way. Now, some might want to call this the "blue side of folk" or the "country side of blues" or just a new set from the old boy. But it's blues to me. My first encounter with the real deal was as a wide-eyed child on the downtown streets of St. Louis in the late 1950's - large black men with metal guitars selling pencils and wailing on the street corners. Later on, as a teen I soaked up a lot from records, weaving my family's hillbilly music with country blues from the likes of Doc, Brownie, Lightning, and Mississippi John. Some of those men I eventually got to know in person, like one winter afternoon in my college dorm in 1973. I was nineteen and Brownie McGhee was staying in the guest suite. He heard me play guitar and invited me in to pick, just the two of us playing hillbilly songs and blues. It was all one thing to that kind Tennessee gentleman. Now I am older than Brownie was then.
