To What Are Yee Listenin' Right Now?

I played and sang Ray Charles "Hard Tomes" to my wife tonight. Her response....

"That is the most ridiculous story I ever heard! Sell your clothes to pay the rent? Especially coming from you. Get real."

Oh, I see the problem. The song doesn't say, "Sell my clothes...". It says, "Pawn my clothes..."

That makes all the difference!

And I thought I could play the blues because I lived the blues. Maybe metal would be better for me...or '80s - some Van Halen mixed with Duran Duran. Sheesh, try to serenade a girl and this is what I get!

I sang that one for my wife once too. She actually liked it.:D

On the recommendation of member @gball , the last few days I've been digesting these tasty and not so sloppy live Pagey licks:

BlackSG91....this is the band is where I learned about Hagstrom. Not Elvis..... There use to be an "official" video for this song and it vanished mysteriously off the web. The video was a pretty cool club jam with all the lights etc. But I started checking out other things they did and liked it. Then Ben Curtis the guitarist left & Brandon (Brothers) continued on until Ben died in 2013 of Lymphoma and I haven't heard anything since.
Ben on guitar with Hag.
 
Ok I found the show where the missing video was shot. The video was studio quality. This 1 skips around a little & doesn't sound as go and in 3 parts. I really dig them playing with the crowd all around them. Would have been a cool show IMO.
