Soulful Texas guitar slinger brings some of his patented Gulf Coast blues heat to the Silver Dollar Friday (January 7)
George Strait // 50 Number Ones
“It seems to me that the blues has gone sour. Too many blues players are using the music to complain about things, so lately I’ve been listening to more country music. At least with George Strait you always get a story.”
Bonnie Raitt // The Best Of Bonnie Raitt
“I like that song I Can’t Make You Love Me. Some call Bonnie’s stuff country, others say it’s the blues, but she’s really mixing both styles together to get something all her own.”
Clifton Chenier // I’m A Hog For You
“This is really a love song, but Clifton had a little more colourful way of expressing himself. I’ve always liked a good animal metaphor.”
