Gee Ted, thank you so much for the compliment. But I just have fun, that's really all.

Happy blues. Man, there are a lot of bluse tunes that make me happy. Here is one of my favorites though.

Hey Rick now that's a good happy blues tune. Thanks for sharing .

And ny friend you are just being modest about your fine as wine playing cause I've heard you and you are darn good. .Far as having fun playing music that's what is all about.When it stops being fun then it's time to put the axe in the closet.And I don't think we are going to go that route.

Ain't that right Kathy and you keep on singing too you hear me!!! .Rick and I would be proud to be in your band.hmmm1 lets see now what would we call your band how about Kathy and The Chatty Boys Hey that will work..

Ted,

As you stated my Clapton is the man. But BB King is his man so I reckon that makes sense to me that I'd love BB. I guess though who am I presently listening to that I'm enjoying besides those two would be Stevie Ray Vaughn and Johnny Winters. A voice new to me that I plan to pick up is Koko Taylor.

And you're 100% right-on regarding Rick's playing. When he just jams and makes it up as he goes, well you know what I'm talking about Ted. So I reckon I don't have to explain. If I really stated how good I felt he was he would be embarrassed greatly I suspect. ;)

I broke his server this weekend. Well I didn't actually break it but he couldn't get it to respond as it should after I did whatever it is I do with computers. Ted, you know me and this subject, good lord! When I discovered I had somehow done something he calmly approaches it as breathing no longer remains an option for me. Then I hear hmmm, well let's just reboot you then. I inhale but don't exhale. Then he goes oh wow! And I'm like OMG I destroyed his server and am ready to kick myself seriously when he goes I knew I meant to do thus and thus. Having nothing to do with the dang server at all, like not even computer related. And then he's typing away. I just can't understand not getting all frazzled and running out into the night ready to knock over some dang cow when my computer goes whacky but he just calmly remembers he meant to do something else while waiting to see if the thing will boot up again.

So I'm thinking all is well, he ain't upset I almost broke it until he calls me tonight and after days and days of not singing that dang song he started singing that dang The Byrd song again. :blink:

As for me and a band. Well...yeah right! :P

Hey Rick, Love your song!! Thank you for posting it.

Now, about this Ohio band, I can't sing or play, but I'm great at listening. Do you think that the next time I make it to Ohio, I can hear y'all play. I'm just a simple southern girl, but I love great music when I hear it and just to be in the presence of such great musicians such as Ted, Kathy, and Rick would definately be a high point in my life. I really mean it. What do you say? Can I sit in, while you jam?

Moon Girl, you're kind to include me in such ways. But I think you've been in the Florida sun too long in regards to me young lady! :rolleyes: ;)

No Kathy. Remember, I've heard you sing too. I've included you because you should be included. You've got a real sweet voice that needs to be heard. Me on the other hand, well there always needs to be an audience and I'm it. It would be an honor to be in your midst when y'all perform.

My goodness!! one more time I am going to tell you that you do have a great voice .You have a tender sweet easy sound that many a female singer would like to have. I have recorded you many times and because of of how you sing and deliver a song lyric makes you one of the best.To this day I stiil love to listen to ya! You know how I gave songs to you some you did not care for too much. But you gave them your best shot and that makes you a trouper So back of girl I know what I'm talking about and it's not beacuse you are my friend.You do not try to copy anyone else you sing from your heart and it comes across.So there chew on that for awile.

This brings up a subject that I hope others of you will join in on. Most popular artists be it singers or

musicians have their own unique sound.Once you hear them the next time around you will know who they

are. Many who become famous do not have the greatest voices in the world or are the finest of all

musicians. Off hand I came name a few that come to my mind.In the country field we have Willie Nelson,

Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash (that bless his heart sang off key sometimes) In the pop side of the coin .there is Rod Stewart.Mic Jagger.Neil Diamond ,Bette Midler The Beatles,Bob Dylan and yes even Elvis.I could go on and on in this field.

The jazz greats that had their own sound.Louis Armstring.Dinah Washington ,Loius Prima Al Hirt,just to name a few.

And Rick in the blues style I am sure you can add to this list so I will leave that one up to you.

A smart record producer is always on the lookout for one thing, does that artist have a sound that is llike no one else and can they get their message across The rest is icing on the cake

.

Moony now don't you think for one minute you are going to be a shower singer all of your life,Hey shower stalls makes for great reverb.So someday I will give a listen ( not in the shower with you but at a distance )

of course) and who knows you just might be better than you think you are.

But Ted, there has to be an audience. That's where I come in. Besides, you know from the old GS site, all I sing in the shower is old show tunes. (Ok, sometimes I sing in the care, but ONLY when I'm alone. :rolleyes: )
