I am glad you enjoyed it! I did as well. I went through some of the stuff on Archive.org and noticed that the last several shows contained songs in this vein...meaning there were 3-4 songs a show that were based around traditional blues. For example, they still do "Hip Shake" quite often (well last year I guess). They played "As Long As I Have You" which was on the last album...they play a pretty wide range of stuff from the blues genre still.

Great track Mike (that's a keeper! Thanks)
Just as I did last time I saw Jason live, I'm hearing a lot of the grittier, bluesy Carlos style stuff coming out in Jason's playing. Must just be a byproduct of swinging overblows that hard.

Well don't if he missed notes, or can't improvise, or any of that other sh-t said earlier but I do know two things....

1 - "There is no debate that he's the ultimate bad ass with the harp."

2 - "Damn that's some fine playing"

'nuff said.
