You should have been my music teacher too!

My teacher had me play mary had a little lamb over and over for a year before she finally gave up and just told me to graduate high school. The meanie.

Mary Had a Little Lamb is a great song when it's played the right way.

...when Robert Johnston went down to the Crossroads to sell his soul so he could play

I was seriously considering finding that song!

Incidentally, I have that box set of Robert’s tunes - it is amazing!

 

[AngelWithAShotgun]

Did it sound like this?

No! Imagine a cat walking on the piano keys while someone was playing a beautiful piece on it. I sounded like that, but without the beautiful piece.

She said, and I quote, "Well at least you got the keys right."

And here is the same song in electric wonder…

I actually have this concert on VHS and DVD, really good!

Well, I can relate. I started playing piano at 6, but my piano teacher dropped me around 10 because “I wasn’t getting any better”. Yet later on I played professionally around Lake Tahoe on guitar, bass and keyboards in bands. Mostly on 5 string bass which I consider my primary instrument, followed closely by guitar.

Sometimes even a good teacher is not the right teacher for someone, but that doesn’t mean the student won’t get it.

Another old blues that Cream electrified.

I'm a bit starstruck with you now

Here's Howlin' Wolf giving Eric Clapton a little lesson in the blues.

Don’t be, I just played in the cover bands that perform in the casinos. It was a lot of fun, a whole lot of work, and not enough money to live on but a nice second job.

That was cool - I love how you can tell who is playing what even though we can’t see them.

I kinda prefer the Skip James version for this one, which I'm surprised to admit. I expected to like Cream

There are multiple styles of blues, the commonality tends to be the song structure, and there is usually prominent guitar, but not always. The Chicago blues tend to have lots of horns, big production type stuff. Which is what Joe is more about. The delta blues are much more rustic, acoustic guitars, not many instruments, very raw and full of emotion in the singing. Everything else is probably more between those extremes.

This was awesome to watch, I was totally not thinking about vibrations... or her face... that looked like she was giving that cello an orgasm o.o

I think the same thing every time I watch her play

 

[AngelWithAShotgun]

Wow I love the first one! Reminds me of home when I was really young, except it wasn't in English. But still, very nostalgic

 

[AngelWithAShotgun]

She was the reason I watched that twice!

They made a movie about her life. "The Lady Sings the Blues" starring Diana Ross

Oh! I just googled that, I saw a glimpse of that on tv before but I wasn't allowed to stay up late then so I didn't get to watch it properly. That was Diana Ross she's pretty, my mom talked about her but never knew what she looked like
