Sherman Robertson Band (US)
|
|
The
final evening started with Louisiana born, but raised in Texas,
guitarist Sherman Robertson who delighted the audience with a
professionally delivered set of blues. Sherman was on fine form
and produced some excellent solos from his Stratocaster during
songs such as Shake Rattle & Roll, Victim of Circumstance, How
Do I Tell Her Its Through, She’s My Texas Cutie, Am I Losing You
and Linda Lou. An audience walkabout was also included much to
the enjoyment of the vast crowd. |
