Anyone hear like blues?

Nice to see you back. I asked about that but you didn't answer.

Sorry, Rog, I missed your inquiry. Thanks for the welcome.

I don't want people comin' over;
They don't
Know what to do.
And when they get back home,
You know they
Blame it on you.

Oh I got the feelin' lone blues;
I can't talk to a stone.
I got the feelin' lone blues.
Whiskey come take me home.

Now when I go to someone's funeral,
And the
Preacher's there,
Tryin' hard to save me
With his
Fear and despair,

I get the feelin' lone blues;
I can't talk to a stone.
I got the feelin' lone blues.
Whiskey come take me home.

Sometimes I make it to the border,
See what
Isn't shown
Can't get no one to follow
So I'm
I'm all alone.

Oh I got the feelin' lone blues;
Need I say anymore?
Yeah it's the feelin' lone blues
Puttin' bars on my door.

Repost from page 3, and worth it, I figure:

The inimitable Texas bluesman, Lightnin Hopkins. This tale is somewhat long (about 7 minutes), but well worth listening to (more than once). It combines self-effacing humor with a good story, and great guitar-playing.

Black Cadillac Blues:

Good ole Robert, eh?

Leavin this monin, with my arms folded up and cryin
Hate to leave my Baby, but she treats me so unkind

Chuck, jammin with a couple limey boys (Clapton and Richards). Chuck's old homeboy from his East Saint Louis days in the late 40's and early 50's, Jimmy Johnson, (piano) even gets some face time here.



And a good time was had by all.

Buster Brown, with his band playing his patented harp riff while backing him up



Stones, stealin Buster' riff



Fleetwood Mac stealin both Buster's and Elmore's James' trademark riffs and slappin them together in the same tune:

Chuck, turnin "Wabash Cannonball" into an another American classic:

Jimmy Reed, singin, playing guitar, and blowin his self a little harp, eh?

For the record, the title of the Jimmy Reed tune was misstated in that last video. It's "You don't have to go."

I believe I would recognize that guitar anywhere.

True dat, Rog! Jimmy (together with Eddie Taylor playing rhythm) trade-marked that sound and used it on many, if not most, of Jimmy's recordings.

A couple of John Lee Hooker tunes that George Thorogood later slapped together for a hit.

The Animals covering a John Lee tune. Amazing that this cover itself is half a century old.

How I discovered the blues.
White boy in the DC suburbs 1965.
Never got to hear the original versions.
No blues on the radio.
Just the British groups.
Spoon-feeding me the good stuff.

Yeah, that's typical, Panz. But of course all them limey boys got the "good stuff" they did from the "good stuff" itself.

You misunderstood.
The good stuff referred to the the original blues recordings imported by British seamen that the British bands covered.

Naw, I understood that. I just abbreviated your post in a way that seemed to distort it. I wasn't trying to "tell" you anything, I was just agreeing with you.

Blind Willie, with the gentle reminder that you were born to die:

Good old Lightnin--just a man and his guitar (well, with a little piano towards the end)
