Now some people don't understand. They think a blues player has to be worried, troubled to sing the blues. That's wrong. I'll put it this way; there's a doctor, he has medicine. He's never, sick, he ain't sick, but he has stuff for the sick people. So the blues player, he ain't worried and bothered, but he's got something for the worried people. Doctor . . . you can see his medicine, you can see his patient. Blues . . . you can't see the music you can't see the patient because it's soul. So I works on the soul, and the doctor works on the body - Roosevelt Sykes, spoken on Smithsonian/Folkways Classic Blues anthology

Easin' Back to Tennessee
« on: January 22, 2019, 03:19:47 PM »
How do!

Long time lurker, first time poster.  :)

Thought some on the forum might like a gander at some recent clips on my youtube channel. Recently acquired a piano and instigated a couple of sessions with pals attempting to record in the wee room with one mic. Videos are just documents of a recording taking place really, rather than attempts at making entertaining videos, but could be of interest for those who've tried recording this type of music in 'proper' studios where they come out sounding like the 1980s. Of course, the players involved are most of what makes it work, and we have forum member Prof Scratchy (actually can't remember his exact handle on here, hah) on the reso here (and funnily enough no piano in this number). I'm singing this one. Check the channel for more videos including a cracking Kissing in the Dark sang by the Prof! :-)

Hope ye enjoy.

Cheers,


Richard.

Excellent - and featuring good friend Prof. Scratchy! Their other videos are well worth a look as well.

Sounding good boys. I recognize another Weenie member on mandoline.

One mic is all you need.

Cheers both! Ah, is Thomas on here too?  :)

Hope I posted this in the right area by the way, just found the back porch bit and see people posting clips there. I was going by the descriptions of each branch in the main forum.  :-\
