I love how most of the concert is just him telling stories while absentmindedly playing his guitar. You can see how blues was born by watching him live

^ that was lame. let's try this again... Softly as a Morning Sunrise and Mr. P.C. by John Coltrane.



And if it didn't work.. well I guess that's just too bad.

I bet I'm the biggest Tower of Power fan on this website! (even if they're not from my generation) Now lets add some soul too! I love jazz so much! I play the trumpet, and other players on here?

I need to write a paper with at least 4 blues songs that all have a common theme

Found this list in an article by Kevin Chisholm

Bragging / Manhood
"Mannish Boy" - Muddy Waters

Jubiliation
"Let the Good Times Roll" - B.B. King & Bobby Blue Bland
"Playin' with my Friends" - B.B. King

Goin' Wherever the wind blows
"B. Movie / Boxcar Blues" - Delbert McClinton

Love / Marriage Problems
"Dr. Feelgood" - Aretha Franklin
"Down-Hearted Blues" - B.B. King

Tryin' to get on home
"Travellin South" - Albert Collins

Desparation
"Texas Flood" - Various Artists (although I like SRV's version!)
"Born under a Bad Sign" - Albert King



I like the going where the wind blows theme and would add "Wagon Wheel" OCMS (country is acceptable if its bluesy as are other genres)

thanks +k

all this is good stuff. i like soul music too. marvin gaye, curtis mayfield, otis redding, sam cooke, and etc. i listen to this stuff in the car with a cup of coffee on the way to the ski mountain in the early morning. set the car on cruise control---maximum relax. even the drive to the mountain is one of the best parts of the day.
