Hi Alain,
Here is my wish for the very best to you and all my LiveBluesWorld friends as we take the music of our heritage into 2009 and the 21st century.
It's an honor to be on this journey with you. ..and a pleasure to be your friend. Thank you for allowing me to be a member of the community.

Bonjour Alain,do you get to Britanny ever?I spend some time there every summer. Two blues friends there are Slavek who plays guitar a la SRV and one of the best blues harp players I have ever heard ChristianTezenas. I am tuned in toy our streaming site as I write this. Don Baker-Tres bien!! .I come from Guernsey and there is an area called Le Bouet quite close to the harbour.a la prochaine!
Alain, Used to be a blues guy out of the Savannah Georgia that used REDDOG as his stage name.
You have been in Paris for awhile I wonder if you have bumped into these musician friends of mine....
Archie Shep, Tino Gonzalos, And a weird little band from about ten years back,,,who used to play the street and live on a barge ...in her early years Madeline Peroux was with them,,,an older man played washtub bass, and for a time a Japanese Harmonica player....
Thought I would give it a shot that street band played for many years in Paris.
Cher Monsieur Willard, thank you very much for your compliment! I can always find your book "Princesse Friponne et la Cadillac Maudite" on the book market at this address: http://www.chapitre.com/CHAPITRE/fr/BOOK/willard-fred/princesse-friponne-et-la-cadillac-maudite,271246.aspx
Actually you can find 2 tracks of Nick Gravenites on the reddog playlist.
Please feel free to send me some good tunes for our programmation!
All the best,
Dear M. Bouet, I love France and the Frenchies. Some of my short fiction and two novels -- Ketchup Karma and Princesse Friponne et la Cadillac Maudite -- were translated for the French market and I think that is swell. Like your red dog.
