My path to blues wasn't from the rockers. It was from local bands and bands from Chicago. I started going to a club right near me when I was 15. JB Hutto is still my favorite show, ever.

Never saw him live. Love to hear him do this.

JB did slow numbers when he played in Chicago. I saw him in Buffalo when I was 19. I looked around the club..
Why is it all young white males here? Whatever. We wanted to hear a Dust My Broom groove for 4 hours. He knew that so that's what he did.
At one point he walked off the stage and walked over to me. He pointed at the bar top.
We cleared the bar in no time and he did the walk. Then later on he did the walk out side.
Rumor has it there was no one like Elmore James live. He had a heart condition and knew he probably wouldn't live to reach old age. JB wasn't wasn't with the Hawks when I saw him. He played a lot slide.
That bass player in the Hawks is having a blast in that vid. All his bands were good. Brewer Phillips was on guitar when I saw him. Must have been around 77'.

I feel better knowing Eric was so knocked out by The Band.
I love that line, "We don't jam. We write songs and we play songs."

There is a band in NW Arkansas named The Cates Brothers who often opened for the Band. The Cates drummer Terry was Levons nephew and Ernie and Earle Cates are very soulful musicians. The bass player Ron sometimes plays with Delbert McClinton one of John Lennons harmonica teachers. If people like the Bands music they can check out The Cates Bros. They had a hit Mr.Union Man. There is some of their music on YT I think.

The Cates were produced and co-written with by Steve Cropper!
