As I sit practicing for an upcoming gig, Honeyman Hopkins and the Marooned Blues Band at the Russell Island Bowls Club February 18th, I've come to the realization that the greatest thing any man has ever invented is the Fender Stratocaster! Thank you Leoπ I pray that the gods of rock-'n'-roll grant me the grace to play with the purity of heart and soul this majestic machine deserves!
Not the blues, but a new tune I wrote recently. With Erik on second lead guitar, bass , percussion and backup vocal, Rene' on piano. And backup vocal, and me on lead vocal and guitar and rhythm guitar the song was recorded on Xmas day.
