Drums were my first instrument. It wasn’t up until
I ran out college and teaching in Dallas that I truly buckled down about guitar. What truly hooked me very first were the old delta bluesmen like Robert Johnson. I went through a heavy acoustic blues phase at that time and used to play a good little slide, however it’s been 10 or 15 years given that I pulled out a slide. Recently I have actually truly been feeling the old things once again however, so last week I put some medium gauge Martin Retro strings on my Washburn parlor, picked up a slide and thumb pick, and began feeling my method around once again. Feels a bit uncomfortable after all these years but I dig it. Here’s my early morning rendition of Robert Johnson’s “Strolling Blues.” I handled to slip a little riff from Johnson’s “Terraplane Blues” in as well.
