He would sit all night long feeling bad and just continue singing and playing, improvising one song after another, and tears would stream from his eyes. And he'd get other people crying. Then, sometimes, he would be on another kick, you know . . . love. He'd just love women. Listening to him he'd make you think you were, well . . . this can't be written down, but you know what I mean. That is, you couldn't understand what the hell he was singing, but you didn't have to - Blind Lemon Jefferson, remembered by Josh White

"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...

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.
