  • @Mr22thou
    @Mr22thou Před 4 měsíci +1

    One thing I like about authentic renditions of old recordings like this ('40s Big Band is another example), is that as much as I love the familiar old analog sound and sometimes the sound of the scratchy old records, is that these are almost certainly closer to what it would have sounded like to hear Robert Johnson, Benny Goodman, and so on. Glad I have both options here on YT.

  • @davisworth5114
    @davisworth5114 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Love the Robt. Petway number, you have a nice style and strong vocals, I started playing in 1969 when I got home from Vietnam, then I saw Fred McDowell at a Seattle Folklore Society concert and was hooked. Then I became concert promoter and we booked all the original bluesmen to come up a do a few gigs. I was very blessed to play with the greats, even got some Robert Johnson stories from Johnny Shines, Booka White once asked me what happened to Washboard Sam. They got separated over the years, Bukka used to stay on my friends' houseboat on Lake Union, he dug Seattle. That's a sweet resonator there, I have a Jay Turser. Keep pickin!!!

    Mr. Phillips, as a slide player I really get a lot out of your vids, as they are such informative examples of Delta and old acoustic blues, and you also sound so good doing it. Your renditions are a pleasure to listen to. But it's also so cool that you are keeping the flame of such old styles and the old songs alive.
