Here's a solo from my 12-year-old guitar playing son from a couple of days ago: youtu.be/uCl8oazKMmAHe normally plays jazz, but these guys called him up to sit in, and they were playing blues, so he played blues. Did all right, I think. |

I always liked BB King and Stevie Ray Vaughan. I grew up playing in the jazz band at school. Saxophone, clarinet and VERY little flute. I know one guy that has a recording of me playing a "take off" copy of the bari sax solo in "I Don't Want Nothin' in the Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland arrangement of that tune. I loved their bari sax player Sahib Shihab. I wish Jesse Boyett would get me a copy of our high school band playing this chart. Can't ever find him. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1lsLOEbzMs |

I saw BB King in the Chicago airport, shook my hand and gave me a lapel pin. Reading this brought a flood of memories of all the acts I photographed over the years. BB King was in a little 500-seat theater in Salina, Kansas. Probably '07 or '08. They usually give you the first three songs to get your pics. Big security guard slapped his hand on my shoulder and barked, "You've got three minutes!" I marched up to the front, BB hit the stage, and we both got to work. |

Try some Chris Stapleton songs bluesy country and good. Want Bluegrass, Chris Stapleton and the Steeldrivers [sticks that made thunder] Christmas music, Home Free's How Great Thou Art, O Holy Night, are Great Stuff, as is all there music! For the veterans out there Home Free's cover of the Dire Straits song Brothers in Arms is deep.
