It is used down here in the Lot too, usually aimed at my wife after accepting "just one small pastis"[:D]best regardsDave

[quote user="Fluffy Kitten"]JH plays a mean honky tonk piano - didn't he used to be in a band called Squeeze?[/quote]Yes he was and I agree, a very mean honky tonk piano, his brother Chris is also very talented. I have to say I am glad the monkey with the lipstick and big glasses has gone, he was scary[:)]short but very nice, http://www.worldblues.com/bbking/prairie/sounds/thrill.wavhave to keep on the blues track, Twinkle may be watching[;-)][:D]best regardsDave

From Jools Holland's Hootenanny 2006, maybe not for the purists but worth a look nonetheless.[8-|]http://youtube.com/watch?v=Ujm7UshfVk0best regardsDave

May be a problem with IE, you could try Mozilla Firefox to see if it has the same problems. Lot's of people believe it to be more secure and stable anyway and it is free...[:D]http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/best regardsDave

Hi Charlotte, I too was interested in the John McLoughlin reference thinking that I had missed some thing but I found out (I think) that it is in the spelling, there is a John McLoughlin who is an Irish blues guitarist but John Mclaughlin is who we are both thinking of, it would be very interesting to hear him play the blues though![:D] Maybe someone else knows some more? I envy your ability to play 12 bar blues, I wish that I had taken up the playing of an instrument when was young, still my 'air' guitar is something to be seen...[Www]best regardsDave

That be an olde Kentish word used during the great Plague when locals were found staggering around the village green, it is still in use today usually after the pubs close......[:D] TP did you take the up to date pictures on the Pembury website that are diplayed alongside the 'olde' Pembury shots? It's a great idea I have a few old prints of our local village here in France and it has inspired me to do the same thing.[:D] Not hi-jacking your thread 'Not Chris' but just to add that my better half agrees completely with you, at the mere mention of 'The Forum' her eyes glaze over and she suddenly finds ironing very interesting....[:D]best regardsDave

[quote user="Dick Smith"]How many times better are the versions of Little Red Rooster by Willie Dixon and Howlin' Wolf than the Rolling Stones? Discuss.(If you have a copy of Howlin' Wolf, the London Sessions, you can hear Wolf giving a blues lesson to Messrs Clapton and Richards using LRR - sublime)[/quote]Dick, the version I have of Little Red Rooster (the London Sessions) fades out at the end, is that how it is on the album? I don't have a Willie Dixon + Howlin' Wolf version to compare with (yet) but I do have a version by Big Mama Thornton that is really good, with some really funny animal sounds thrown in.best regardsDave

I followed what I was led to believe a genuine reccommended link to this site:www.cheapgiftsfrombugbear.comwhen I arrived there I found that the bu**ers had scarpered, all I wanted was something cheap for my wife as she hated the new Hoover that I purchased for her this Christmas from Ebay.china.net, does anyone know Mandarin?zàijiànDave[:D]this post is not intended to insult, cause offence or upset anyone.[Www]

[quote user="Dave"]At this moment I am listening to Leadbelly "where did you sleep last night" MMmmm[:D]
best regardsDave[/quote]Was that a question Dave.......................................[:D][:D]
Carly Simon..............."I can see clearly now"
[/quote]No not really[:)] usually the question used to be "where did I sleep last night" [;-)] Off to find the tracks mentioned by Dick, beware the twinkling fairy if you lead this 'Blues' thread astray with talk of Carly Simon.......[:D][:D] -

[quote user="Dick Smith"]Oh Dave, why not say what you mean? After all, we mustn't have opinions, must we?I actually quite like the Paul Weller version, it's on my iPod, I just wanted to get Marsha's version as well... sorry.[/quote]There's me thinking that I had said what I meant, as to Paul Weller and Marsha Hunt you may do well to read your own postings in which you had said that you were looking for the version by Marsha Hunt, I found it for you and offered it to you but you chose not to reply. say what you mean Dick, you are looking for it but only from people in your club? I just know that you will either ignore this posting or say something sarcastic and intended to hurt, so go ahead either way is OK I will survive.best regardsDavePS my apologies for any spelling or grammar mistakes that may cause offence, this is not intended.

You are welcome Chris, while searching around why not have a listen to 'The Jeff Healey Band' and maybe 'Gary Moore' in blues mode. Anyway what's wrong with Paul Weller? His version of 'Walks on Gilded Splinters' knocks Marsha Hunt's version into a cocked hat, but then that is just in my opinion. You asked about Blues to get you into the 'zone' and by and large most have given you suggestions, others it seems would rather ram their opinion down your throat, or should it be ears.best regardsDave[:D]

[quote user="Clair"][quote user="Chris Head"]You didn't answer my question though! Have you been broken in yet?[/quote]Well!!! (splutter splutter) [:$], I could not possibly say![:)]You've re-awakened my ears now and I've been looking at getting more Robert Cray, dust the old Van Morrison and...Re Chris Rea, through his more commercial success (Road to hell, On the beach), he is not usually associated with blues, but once you've heard Dancing down the stony road, you know where his roots really are.[img]http://www.websmileys.com/sm/music/musik05.gif[/img][/quote]Surely not the sort of thing to ask a lady Chris......[:D]best regardsDave

[quote user="Chris Head"]
I love Blues, it's the only music for me when I'm in the 'zone'. My collection is sad and my knowledge poor. What tracks can I download that'll blow my socks off?

Hi Suze, the horse is as taken, likewise the Holme Oak? I admit to addiing a couple of sparkles to the Icy leaf though.....[;-)]best regardsDave
-
Hi Dick, I have the Marsha Hunt track, we could maybe do a file transfer using Skype perhaps or if you have any suggestions? best regardsDave
-
Think I may have found it Dick, it just coming down now, very slowly as I am back on my dial up at the moment, the bitrate is 192 so may be OK, I will let you know, OK?best regardsDave

It ends up at a Russian download site that you have to register and pay with a credit card, maybe not a good idea! I am hunting for it though as I enjoy a challenge[:D]best regardsDave
