G-Love at Thanksgiving in Nueva York

G-Love and the Special Sauce

G-Love was on point and kept the spirits thankful. Since the show, I have aquired a shake when I play just to simply act cool like G-Love. Dude shakes in his seat while playing, which to some may seem odd, but I have this recording of the great Son House fliping out on slide guitar making movements and sound just sitting there with an instrument. The recording in on Roots Music DVD from PBS. This is a four disk set. It covers Conjunto (Flaco Jimenez), Bluegrass (Bill Monore), Honky Tonk (Willis, Cash, Haggard,..), Zydeco (Clifton Chanier), Cajun (Balfa Brothers). I was caught by the song on the DVD from the Balfa Brothers, Port Arthur Blues. Those vatos or whatever is slang in creole for cool dudes, are singing their soul out on that cut.

Oh yeah, G-Love he is tight, he has the blues harmonica down to a science, and he is obviously aware of all the greats since he mentions pretty much every artist he has been influenced by on one song but I forgot which one it was. It may have been Banger with an extended rap. Here is the set list, if a torrent is out there, I have not found it.
