When The Blues Come To Texas
« on: January 21, 2012, 03:59:18 AM »

A slide blues inspired by Texan bluesmen Blind Lemon Jefferson, Texas Alexander and Ramblin' Thomas.

I always loved the poetic phrase : "when the blues come to Texas, loping like a mule" and wanted to use it in a song.

Lovely stuff. I especially like the sad n lazy feel to your vocal.
