I had to sell my soul to the devil in order to learn to play like [Tommy Johnson]. Only the fellow who called himself the devil offered to teach me guitar in ten easy lessons, fifty dollars down and ten dollars per lesson. And he wasn't a man, exactly, but a transvestite who called himself "Peetie Wheatstraw's mother-in-law - Steve Calt, attributed to Shirley Griffith

"Prater's Blues" w/Devin on Mando!
« on: January 28, 2012, 11:13:02 AM »
Howdy folks!  Haven't posted in a while so I guess it's about time for shameless self-promotion....   ;)  My buddy Devin (Nobocaster) of the Gallus Brothers passed through town recently and we got some time to pick together a bit.  Great fun.  The last tune we played together was "Prater's Blues" by Prater and Hayes.  I've never actually heard the original, so I'm sure I sound absolutely nothing like Hayes, but maybe some o' y'all might dig this anyway.  :)   http://www.reverbnation.com/artist/artist_songs/1704115

Thanks, folks!  I think I've had more fun playing with Devin than anyone else I've played with.  Of course... I don't really play with other people very often.  Gotta work on that...

Very fine indeed boys! :)

Nice, very. Can I deduce from the new avatar you got the El Trovador you mentioned you were craving in an earlier thread?

Thanks again, fellas!  @Rivers...  No Trovadors for me, I'm sorry to say.  Just my trusty '36 Trojan I've had for a few years now.

thanks for posting that mike. the only downside of praters blues for me was it didn't last long enough, absolutely great stuff. i found time to listen to your version of buddy bolden as well which i also really enjoyed.
