Guy Davis

VERSLAG

5 november 2006 | Guy Davis
Vandaag hadden we de blues in huis. Guy Davis op acoustische gitaar, banjo en mondharmonica en Roth Patterson op electrische gitaar. We zongen mee, blaften als een hond en leerden genieten van Shortning Bread want dat is de blues. En aan de hand van Guy gingen we muzikaal een eeuw terug, naar de 1e wereldoorlog, en vervolgens via Guy's helden Sleepy John Estes, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Big Bill Broonzy en vele anderen weer terug naar het heden van Guy's eigen songs. De goed gevulde zaal waardeerde dit alles met een staande ovatie.
