Blues baby-
harmonica jammin'
sugar- can you feel it?
drippin' the hues
steal guitar twangin'
soulful voice a singin'
Blues baby-
strummin' and hummin'
makin' these sad, sad sounds
hold your tears now baby
don't you cry for me
'cause it's just the
Blues baby-
comin' out o' me

s.a.t.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Now this is more like it....Very nice...
could feel the beat of it as well.  Probably
plays the guitar as well as she uses her
"tools".....

Thanks, Barry

Sometimes one wonders if it reads as it speaks to one's mind.  I'm glad you could catch the beat.  I truly love the "blues" as far as a music form goes.

If you've ever listened to Albert King, or Stevie Ray, or any great blues players -- you've heard a mixolidian riff... just a little bit fancier than a pentatonic
