Old Time Blues Singer and Harp Player

Meets

Flagler Beach FL

Description

Old time blues player, 76, and been playing harmonica for over 50 years, (played harp and sang in a band for about 20 years several decades ago) looking to jam with some folks who like to play the blues, country, and some blue grass, classic rock, but my heart is in the blues. Sonny Terry, Sonny Boy Williamson, Eric Clapton, Big Walter Horton, Snooky Prior, some of my favorites. Besides some of these guys, our old band use to do Bonnie Raitte, Stones, Greatful Dead, Band, New Riders, and many other 60s people. Glen Dale Train one of my favorites! Also really like Freight Train Boogie, Big Boss Man, Nine Below Zero, and Before you Accuse Me and Key to the Highway, Clapton versions and Catfish John and Ain’t No Sunshine When She’s Gone. I am just dying to sing and play harp on one of Big Walter Horton's songs, " Mama Put the Kettle On" but I need a guitar and choirs of at least one person to throw in "Heat it up now" every now and then. Or maybe Sonny Terry's “White Boy Lost in the Blues” You play it I can probably sing it if I know the song and remember the words. If it blues, you play it and I think I can lay harp on it no matter what it is. And what a great time to play the blues with all this virus and political shit going around. I have both my vaccine shots so should be pretty harmless. Easy going, very healthy and stable and not looking to become rock and roll star. Not doing this for $. Was sitting in with a local electric blues band for a while last year but I think they have gone their own way. Would be interested in sitting in with electric band or just few acoustic people would be great too. If you are a one or two man acoustic band I would also be interested and backing you up with some harmonies and harp too. Perhaps get some songs together and play out a little locally when this virus settles a little more and everyone feels safe. Have my own amp and mic. “ So that’s my story and I’m sttttttticken to it.” This is a long shot but perhaps there is some other folks out here locally who long to play some music for music sake, and then share it with some other people if we can. Nice thing about Blues is its easy and everyone can relate to the Blues My name is Dale Text me or call, be glad to hear from you
