sing the songs I really feel Featured Playlist "I ain't got no control.
And we're all living short. Life happens too fast. The tail we grew
earlier disappears. All the stories told and nothing learned. Guess we
keep on fighting and burning. Not blessing our souls. Everyday I loose
the way.
The Isle of Wight Festival 1970 was a music festival held between 26 and 31 August 1970 at Afton Down, an area on the western side of the Isle of Wight
in England. It was the last of three consecutive music festivals to
take place on the island between 1968 and 1970 and often acknowledged as
the largest musical event of its time, with a larger attendance than Woodstock.[ Although estimates vary, Guinness World Records estimated 600,000 to 700,000 people attended.It was organised and promoted by local brothers, Ron and Ray Foulk through their company Fiery Creations Ltd and their brother Bill Foulk. Ron Smith was site manager and Rikki Farr acted as compere.
Free became renowned for their live shows and non-stop touring. However,
their studio albums did not sell very well until their third, Fire and Water, featured the massive hit "All Right Now". The song helped secure them a place at the Isle of Wight Festival 1970, where they played to 600,000 people.In the early 1970s Free became one of the biggest-selling British blues rock[6][7][8]
groups; by the time they disbanded, they had sold more than 20 million
albums around the world and had played more than 700 arena and festival
concerts. "All Right Now" remains a R&B staple, and has been entered
in ASCAP's "One Million" airplay singles club.
All Right Now
Rolling Stone has referred to the band as "British hard rock pioneers".The magazine ranked Rodgers No. 55 in its list of the "100 Greatest Singers of All Time",and Paul Kossoff at Number 51 in its "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time". Free were signed to Island Records in the UK and A&M Records in North America.

Sweet Home Chicago Roy Buchanan (September 23, 1939 – August 14, 1988) was an Americanguitarist and bluesmusician. A pioneer of the Telecaster sound,Buchanan was a sideman and solo artist, with two gold albums early in his career,and two later solo albums that made it on to the Billboard chart.
Despite never having achieved stardom, he is still considered a highly
influential guitar player. Although not mentioned on the Rolling Stone list "100 Greatest Guitarists of all Time," Guitar Player praised him as one of the "50 Greatest Tones of all Time."
By the late 50s there was a huge demand for folk/blues in the clubs
around the East coast and as their fame as a double act grew and as
record sales climbed steeply, Sonny and Brownie became national
household names. They cut a gospel album in Oakland CA in 1957, then
toured Britain and recorded an album in London the following year, to
great acclaim.(All About Blues Music)
Burnt Child
TV appearances took them into the world mainstream and
they were soon issuing a studio album or live set every few months. They
covered a lot of ground with these recordings; they had learned a lot
of Piedmont Blues as young men and also gave their interpretations of
many other Blues players’ best songs, as well as forays into other
styles.(All About Blues Music)
Gonna Move Across The River
The Festival movement loved them for their wide repertoire of
folk, blues, gospel and protest songs, and they toured the world for the
whole of the 60s as a headline attraction. The sight of the tall man
with a heavy limp leading the small blind man on stage was seen on five
continents.(All About Blues Music)
Stranger Blues
Despite their affable stage act, the two men did not get
along too well personally as the years went by. On the 1973 album ‘Sonny
and Brownie’ with John Mayall and John Hammond Jr.
they banter like old friends, but outside the studio they would barely
talk. It finally came to the point where they would be billed together,
but Sonny would play with another guitarist and then Brownie would do a
solo set. Thus the affair came to a messy end at some indeterminate time
in the late 70s.(All About Blues Music)
."Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just As Bad)", also known as "Call It Stormy Monday", or just "Stormy Monday", is a blues song written by T-Bone Walker and first recorded in 1947. Confusingly, it is also sometimes referred to as "Stormy Monday Blues", although that is actually the title of a different song, a #1 R&B hit recorded in 1942 by Earl Hines and Billy Eckstine; Walker titled his song as he did to avoid the name collision.
T-Bone Walker, the master of the Eletric Blues guitar playing his classic Stormy Monday
The original recording appeared on Black & White Records, produced by Ralph Bass, and was one of Walker's breakthrough sides in pioneering the idiom of electric blues guitar. This recording also featured smoky trumpet work from sideman Teddy Buckner. It reached #5 on the R&B charts in 1948. B.B. King has said that "Call It Stormy Monday" inspired him to begin playing electric guitar.
Lou Rawls with Les MacCann trio featuring Stanley Turrentine(ts) 1989Walker re-recorded the song with better fidelity and a somewhat different arrangement on his classic 1959 Atlantic Records album T-Bone Blues.
Stormy Monday by Eva Cassidy, Jan 3,1996,Live at Blues Alley, a small nightclub, in
Washington,DC.
The song became a standard for blues and blues rock artists, and over the years was recorded by Albert King, Eva Cassidy, Question Mark and the Mysterians, Jethro Tull, and others. Trouble ensued when artists named it "Stormy Monday Blues", however, as for instance Bobby Bland did on a well-known rendition, as it was mis-credited and royalties went to the Hines-Eckstine song rather than Walker's. This may have also happened on some of the treatments that were just called "Stormy Monday".
The classic T-Bone Walker's tune by John Mayall & The Original Bluesbreakers ft. Albert King.
This was recorded in June, 1982 at the New Jersey's Capitol Theatre.

Collin Allen: drums
The song was most popularized by The Allman Brothers Band, who included a sterling live performance (as "Stormy Monday") on their classic album At Fillmore East in 1971. Initially introduced as "an old Bobby Bland song," in reference to his aforementioned take, a correction is made and T-Bone Walker is given proper recognition. It garnered considerable airplay on progressive rock and album-oriented rock radio formats during the 1970s.

The 1988 Mike Figgis film Stormy Monday was named for the song, and includes B. B. King's performance of it over the opening credits.
Aaron Thibeaux Walker or T-Bone Walker or Oak Cliff T-Bone (May 26, 1910 — March 15, 1975 was an Americanbluesguitarist, singer, pianist and songwriter who was one of the most important pioneers of the electric guitar. His electric guitar solos were among the first heard on modern blues recordings and helped set a standard that is still followed. He was ranked #47 in Rolling Stone Magazine's list of The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.
Soul Train was a fantastic show, although the majority of the acts lipsynced to their records. There were exceptions (James Brown for one)
and these two legendary performers were just that. Each is playing live with a backing band.
"The Thrill Is Gone" is a slow minor-key blues song written by West coast blues musician Roy Hawkins and Rick Darnell in 1951. Hawkins' recording of the song reached number six in the Billboard R&B chart in 1951.[1] In 1970, "The Thrill Is Gone" became a major hit for B.B. King.

The sky is cryin, look at the tears roll down the street.
The sky is cryin, look at the tears roll down the street.
I'm wadin in tears lookin for my baby,
And I wonder, where can she be?
I saw my baby one mornin, and she was walkin on down the street.
I saw my baby one mornin, and she was walkin on down the street.
Made me feel so good,
Until my poor heart would skip a beat.
I got a bad feelin, my baby, my baby don't love me no more.
I got a bad feelin, my baby don't love me no more.
Now, the sky's been cryin,
The tears rollin down my nose.

Soldier Of Misfortune
Had the pleasure to see David Olney perform several times during his visits to the Netherlands, including in Theater De Wegwijzer. Beautiful songs and, a very sympathetic personality. Unfortunately, he passed away unexpectedly during a performance in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, on January 18, 2020, at the age of seventy-one.He was in the middle of his third song when he stopped, apologized and shut his eyes, according to fellow musician Scott Miller, who was accompanying Olney.
