Come on in my kitchen

OK, on a roll here so one more!

This was something my guitarist wanted to do but I wasn't sure how the harp would fit in. As it turned out the song seemed to morph into a unique-ish version. My playing is essentially accompaniment again here although I think that the signature harp & guitar riff works quite well. Let me know what you think- Robert Johnson with a difference! (and then I'll get back to post war Chicago!)

Boll Weevil

So this is a version of an old country blues which I've heard played by Eric Bibb accompanied by Grant Dermody on harp. We've tried to stay pretty close to their version- it just has such a great "haunting" sound throughout. Not a great deal of variety but a cool repetitive hook.

Walk On

Walk On- a classic Sonny and Brownie tune that my trio will be playing when we open for Bill "Mud" Morganfield on tour in the UK next month- I can't wait!

Azul 1160

After hours of trying to get Little Walter's Blue Midnight "right," I found myself blue and at midnight. So I took the backing track for it (Shoji's), with my RP 255 hooked up to my Kalamazoo (for reverb), and improvised this. It's pretty much stream of consciousness rather than memorable chorus form work (well, I guess it's a lot of ABC chorus forms, if you want to look at it that way). Kind of thematic/repetitive in places, though.
I think the CR element in my mike is a little too hot for the RP 255, so it clips nastily in places. Still working on figuring out how to use it best. continue reading...

Juke

This is my version of Juke by Little Walter. I have been studying this tune on and off for years and this is the best I can do so far. Trying to play as close as possible to the original. Jamtrack by Shoji.

this song is one reason why I wanted to start playing harmonica, I found no good backingtrack so I made one myself... i will keep working on it

This is my recording of the first solo in the William Clarke study song Lonesome Bedroom Blues!
a little too much distortion for my opinion...What do you think? :)
