Turn that first question inside out... What money?!
Good or bad, for better or worse, when it's all said and done, life in America is just a business.
I didn't make that rule but I certainly do recognize it. That said, if it's money…

Listening to the latest mixes... Very encouraging!!
Hola Pedro,
Still working on it Bro. I gotta finish this CD first.
I'm sure I've heard most of the same cliche's you have and for the life of me I can't think of any. I do recall this one time when Johnny Heartsman, talking about…
'Sup Pedro...
Yeah Bro. I mostly played the traps for the better part of 40 years, back when I used to be "Shad Harris" :=) Now I have to focus on One-handed keyboard, harp and vocals for live performances, but I can still get around…
I agree with you Chad, I think ALL solos have a different significance depending on the circumstances. Your live performance was completely solo. I'm guessing you would have approached the song differently if you were performing it with a…
I think you have to sign a document that the guy with the empty eyes mysteriously makes materialize out of nowhere, in your own blood before an actual sale is recorded. But then again, I could be wrong.
The “future prosperity” of…
"...it is the soul of rock, the rhythm of jazz, the drive of bluegrass, and the conscience of gospel and all that is sacred."
Now that's pure poetry Mr. Davenport. It's also close to the bone.

Wow! I feel you. But to compare Ike & Mike is... I don't know... Useless...? You know like, apples and ah, shoes.
I like the Jacko vs. Prince fight. Same weight class, same styles, same demographics. I give the nod to Prince 'cause I…
The term "blues" as it applies to a musical genre, relatively speaking is not that old. When one compares the histories of other cultures, America, although dynamically impressive, is not yet a great example of longevity. It is, in fact,…
Coming from a American Jazz background, I can relate to the three songs you uploaded. I also enjoyed them very much.I'm going to learn "Thinking", I like the changes and the lyric. Is that an original?
I think what happens or what has…
Hey Shad,
We definitely gotta get you on Blindman's Blues Forum! A website I help promote. It's worth looking up, believe me. Just GOOGLE it. Over 500,000 posts! Please stop by. You'd make a fine addition to the forum.
Thx for the "friend add" Shad. Art Blakey was dead right. Can't let happen to blues what's happened to C&W. Real country music is now euphemistically categorized "Americana" while the junk coming out of Nashville couldn't touch real country if Waylon Jennings came back from the dead and kicked their butts with his last good leg and beat them over the heads with the other leg he had amputated a few months before he passed.
