Song Saturday; Feeling bad blues.

A piece of music called ‘feeling bad blues’………..
and I’m totally relating to that today.

I’m still decorating,  but I’ve have had several ‘mishaps’ along the way today. While messing about in the shed looking for my paint brushes I walked into a split plastic container and sliced my leg open on the knife like jagged plastic. I just about recovered from that when my daughter turned up. She wanted toast so I grabbed the toaster to plug it in not knowing  she had already put the toast in, and to make sure I inflicted maximum damage, as I grabbed the toaster my fingers slipped into the hole and made contact with the red hot bits inside. That was another ice pack and dressing. By the time she left I was so doped up on painkillers I couldn’t feel the pain, until I leaned over too far, unbalanced the ladder, slipped and cracked my head on the shelf……..and that used the last of the disposable ice packs. No joking.............this really HAS  been my day

So yeah…………..’feeling bad blues’ is a very appropriate piece of music for me today.

 

Song Saturdau; Ry Cooder

Feeling Bad Blues................

positively the BEST  slide guitar EVER

Song Saturday; Ry Cooder

Ry Cooder singing Vigilante Man in a clip from 'The Old Grey Whistle Test'. Remember that?? I used to love that programme. Ever wondered where the programme got its title?? The story goes that there were a couple of grey haired ladies who used to clean the studio and they were oft around the building during rehearsals or even recordings. The 'test' was .... if they where whistling the song the next day... it passed!! No idea if this is a true story but its kinda nice.
