I have been listening to a band called Slow Joe and The Ginger Accident. Slow Joe is a 72 year old guy from Bombay...very eclectic band, they play really authentic roots rock and their own version of low tech Bollywood pop....I've seen them cover early Pink Floyd and Elvis in the same set. But it is Joe's original songs that really are great.<br />I admit, chromatic is a bitch, start playing melodies, it gets easier and easier. I started by trying to play Midnight in Moscow...There is a YouTube video of Stevie Wonder jamming with Toots Theilman on Toot's classic, Bluesette.

I hated it, but then they tried to make me play the bassoon and that was even worse-I quit. Still remember a bit of it, though. I also have various music that goes through my head, but I can usually trace it back to something I heard during the day. I just read your prior post, so now I will have "I'm tired" rattling through my mind for quite a while. So apt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
