JIM’S ACOUSTIC BLUES
CAFE
Saturday, 28th
August 2004
1.00 - T.B.C.
(alias Dai Thomas)
1.30 - JOHNNY "STACKAY BOTTOM BOY" ACE
Low-down blues, hokum and medicine show toons
too.
"I heard so much chicken 'til I heard cluckin' in
my sleep!")
2.10 - "PROFESSOR FRANK JELLY ROLL & PAUL"
House-rockin' piano blues an' boogie + some dirty
harp. Oh! Whip it to a low gravy, boys.)
2.45 - CHARLIE MITTON
Fine finger-pickin' guitar blues from Mississippi to Chicago.
3.20 - DAI THOMAS
Smokin' Mississippi Delta Blues and easy East Coast loping guitar - shake 'em on
down, man!
4.00 - "CRAWLIN' PAUL
COWLEY"
New name to Jim's featuring uncanny likeness to vocals of Mississippi John Hurt
and Blind Willie
McTell + his own original songs. Plays a kind-a wicked gittar as well.
4.30 - "LILLIE"
Amazing!
5.00 -
"DOC SANDERS"
Mind-gripping blues from the Deep South of way-back-when. He jes' keeps them "M.
& O. Blues".
5.30 - "HELLHOUND REX &
HOOT OWL ROBIN"
Now known as "WMD" these cats cover the waterfront.
Delta, Georgia, East Coats & Texas.
With sleazy slide, harrowing harp, wicked washboard and krazy kazoo.
6.00 "THE BEWITCHING
HOUR"
When all good children go to bed and waitresses have a rest and Jim's Cafe closed!
?.?? -
"SNAKEHIPS & ALLAN"
Richie and Allan wanted to keep up their very high standard of early blues from
ragtime to boogie, with great bottleneck a la Tampa Red etc., plus smokin' piano
blues - but the clock beat them and we had to wait 24 hours (no not from Tulsa) to
soak in their excellent sounds. Check them out on Sunday's photo page...
