I think I saw some old man and he was real good on the guitar, on the chords, and he didn't sing that good, just play something like that, and I copied some of that and put the words to it. And Blind Blake used to have something kinda in that style. He would play in that style and I thought he was a real good guitar player. Nice chords. Played finger style. - Jesse Babyface Thomas explains how he wrote Blue Goose Blues, interview in Shreveport, La., ca. 1989
For the record, and in case anyone is wondering, if you tried to access the site a couple of days ago and couldn't navigate past an error that appeared on all pages, here's what happened.
The issue was on the server side where a default setting changed in a new release of some site admin software. This triggered the error.
With the help of our host provider we identified the problem, changed that one setting and it's now fixed. Thank you to all who reported it.
I'd like to extend a heartfelt thanks to all who identified and rectified the problem! I can't even imagine how to determine what would have caused such an issue, given the miles of coding that must be involved. Thank you so much! Sincerely yours, Johnm
Agreed, thanks for the quick fix and the work you admins do. I saw the problem, but I don't know how to report them. John Miller may be the only person on here whose contact info I might have, and I did not pursue tracking him down. I figured somebody had to be on top of it! Dave
