I've loved a bit of Seasick Steve since I saw him at Latitude 2008

Must expand repertoire...

I fucking LOVE blues.
I love yer Robert Johnson, Charley Patton type country folk blues, I love your Buddy Guy electric Chicago blues, yer British 60s blues boom stuff right up to some of the present day stuff like Seasick Steve.

Fucking LOVE. IT.

"Bowie plays the Blues"
David Bowie turns his imeasurable talent to the broken down raw power of blues music and blows all blues away. ***** The NME

You won't be surprised to know
...that that terrible, terrible penis even had a go at being a blues/r&b artist in the 60s. One of his many early failed bandwagon-jumping attempts.

Such integrity! God how I love him.

You say blues, I say Beefheart,
hardly relaxing though. Even when he does the almost normal stuff, it tends to descend into a stramash of hootin and a hollerin.
