Gave up on "modern Radio music" about 10 years ago

I have been hooked for about 7 yrs or so now.

Have collected up about 14,000 (NOT a type-O) songs of MANY different musicians (NOT "artists") from Son House, Blind Willie Johnson and Blind Willie McTell to Mississippi Fred McDowell and MANY in-between.

Ain't just me ... is it ?

Tuning in just now. The blues and jazz music from 1900-1940's is my fav listening music. I so appreciate the "band in a box" approach to making music. An acoustic guitar played finger style in any of the older blues regional styles KICKS.

I play some of the music on my guitars. On occasion my buddy and I will play out of the house. He plays for a living and I play because I love it and can be entertaining back-up to his expertise. Music from many of the acoustic blues masters are our choices.

Channeling some Broonzy this morning on my guitar. Pig Meat Strut'ing, Eric -
