Interesting! It does get better after the first couple of tracks though. I must get that Wheeler book. 

It's a good, informative read and a lot of work obviously went into it.

Hopefully warmer today. Had a rough night, Lucinda was not sleeping well . . . and that meant I didn't either.

Starting off with an old favorite, my OG LP copy of Grateful Dead "Blues for Allah". . . sounds really good today.

David S. Ware String Ensemble – Threads

I'm very much a Ware agnostic which means I sometimes forget how much I love this one.

That's one of the few Wares I don't have, not sure why as I hoovered up the Blue Series in real time

[Rabshakeh]

Wynton Marsalis and Eric Clapton - Wynton Marsalis and Eric Clapton Play The Blues: Live From Jazz At Lincoln Center

An idle stream, since this appears to have been posted to YT. I assumed it would be sad BB King tweakings, but it certainly is not that.

For some reason I missed it at the time but picked it up since (and have since disposed of the hard copy CD sadly). I don't know why it wasn't as high profile as the rest of that excellent series. 

It is streamable and heartily recommended.

Ok, what genre is being used to pigeonhole stuff like this. My Pandora wants to know...

I know what it used to be called but that was a while back...
