Saturday Single Back 2 Back



We really show off our flexibility today with a Saturday Single  - Back 2 Back separated by 50 years, this tune was ouriginally a hit 78 for the bluesman, Blind Lemon Jefferson. Deep Elem Blues has been covered by countless bands through the decades and continues to be a popular song today. It is an ode to a part of east Dallas which was originally the urban hub for African American commerce during the early twentieth century...today it has re-emerged as a hip residential and shopping area for the hot rod and tattoo crowd around Big D and of course, the tourists. Here are Mary McCoy and the Cycolones from 1965 and Levon Helm, from Merefest, some 50 years later with Deep Elem Blues...from Trick's Synthetic Podcast.

A Saturday Single Back 2 Back

I've just begun reading Ian McLagan's autobiography, All The Rage, (available here) and thought it would be appropriate to close out the month of April with two versions of April Fool. The first is Ronnie Lane and Pete Townsend from 1977's Rough Mix album. The second is Ian McLagan and his Bump Band from Spiritual Boy, a tribute to Ronnie. By the way, both Ronnie and Ian were awarded membership in the Rock Hall of Fame this April as members of the Small Faces! Another quality offering from Trick's Synthetic Podcast!
