Hi,
Slow work day. Not earth-shattering but it seems to me that there is a lot of similarity between the opening of Mellow Down Easy (especially as done by Paul Butterfield) and John Mayall's Room to Move. Am I hearing that right - just wondering?

Also, anyone have an idea on where the blues tradition of repeating lines comes from? My guess would be field hand work songs, maybe?
